Pannonhalmi Apátsági Pinot Noir 2022 0,75l

The Benedictine monks who settled on Pannonhalma had a close relationship with grape growing and winemaking for centuries. The Abbey grew grapes and made its wines according to the highest level of grape and wine culture of the given era. At the beginning of the 20th century, the abbey's estates were located on an area of about 100 hectares near Pannonhalma, as well as in Somló and Tokaj-Hegyalja. Their wines were already sold in bottles and even exported beyond the historical borders. However, due to political changes after 1945, this traditional activity became state property, which made it difficult to continue. Despite this, the monks living on Pannonhalma did not give up nurturing their traditions. Planning began in 2000 with the cooperation of the Pannonhalmi Abbey and MKB Bank Zrt., as a result of which the Pannonhalmi Abbey Winery was built in 2003, with a storage capacity of 3,000 hectoliters, on a floor area of 2,000 square meters.
