Préselő team
The owners Zsolt Nagy, his wife Gabi and Árpád Zöldi-Kovács –begun their passion for wine almost two decades ago. Zsolt, an international consultant by profession, sampled the art of grape cultivation in a different vine-region, while Árpád as a viticulture-viniculture engineer was the head winemaker of a local vineyard. They launched the first vintage in 2013 that was supported by Gabi being the oenologist / wine-tester for harmonizing the savor.
All together is a great set-up while completing the viticulture activities, cellar and wine-testing events.The quality of Préselő’s genuinely elegant wines are made up based on local conditions and using the intuition of the internationally experienced oenologist / wine-tester.
The Préselő story
‘Préselő’ means ‘Wine Press’, and here comes the explanation of the owners: “When we launched our winery in Tokaj-Hegyalja, we discovered this old vine-dresser house located in the center of Erdőbénye and we had done our best to renew it in a suitable manner to become our vineyard estate.
Inside of the abandoned house we found this beautiful, industrial relic, double-bedded wine-press, that is placed today in the main part of the yard, being also the eponym of our brand. The more than 100 years old wine-press has been preserved in a very good shape as the contemporary state-of-the-art technology made in a renowned workshop from Miskolc.“
Préselő vineyards and capacity
The vineyards are spread all around Erdőbénye on almost 8 hectares. The diversity of the vineyards’ orientation let them produce approx. 12 000–15 000 bottles of wine on a yearly basis. Beside the dry wines based on the well known Tokaj varieties Préselő produces Tokaji Aszú and late harvest sweet wines as well.
Guest house
“We are aiming for a regional hospitality where we are also pleased to relax, where beside our hand-made wine testing events there should be also an adventure feeling, awareness of life provided for our guests.”
