Geography & Climate

The terroir of Eastern Europe is as diverse as its history. High-altitude vineyards, volcanic soils and mineral-rich terrains define regions like Tokaj and the Carpathians, while warm southern plains offer generous sun exposure. This geographical diversity, combined with centuries-old viticulture, creates wines that are balanced, expressive and deeply rooted in place.
