The vineyards are located on the terraces of Pohronska pahorkatina, featuring ponds and marshland that create a unique microclimate. The top layer of soil consists of clay-loam, which lays above the marine sediments, sandstone, and limestone veins. Deeper soil layers consist of yellow and blue-gray clay. Zsolt’s fermentations take place in open-topped barrels with no sulfur and no intervention, he also uses a lot of skin maceration, aging under voile to create naturally strong and stable wines.
