In the middle of 19th century, János Ujvári started to cultivate vine on the west side of the Szent György-hegy in the Csendár slope. In 1935 Pál Ujvári purchased an additional vineyard on the south part of the hill. At this time the estate was expanded with a south-facing vineyard by the dowry of Teréz Kozma.
The current parcels were planted in 1955; vine rows of more than 60-year old plants make the vineyard. We are costantly taking care and – when necessary – replacing the plants. Conscious and gentle pruning and cautious green work. Our aim is to maintain the good condition for the plantation for a long time.

The colours of Basalt
Orange and “Basalt grey” – these are the colours of UJVÁRI. Inspired by the vulcanic basalt (typical rock of our hill “Szent György-hegy”) that surfaces as a glowing orange-coloured lava and becomes a fine-structured, dark grey solid rock once it is cooled down.
