Kováts Winery

A fourth generation in Kovats family is in winemaking business, and the job is slowly being overtaken by a younger generation. Their story began in the late 19th century and up until today they have been working on connecting local tradition and modern trends in winemaking and vine growing.

Kovats family vineyards are located near the village Suza and spread over 15 hectares. There they grow numerous grape varieties, mostly graševina, but also chardonnay, sauvignon blanc, pinot gris, traminer, cabernet sauvignon, frankovka and merlot. They also offer wine tastings for visitor groups. Their tasting room is located right next to the wine cellar and can receive up to 50 people.

Tradition is very important for them, so the member of the youngest generation in the family is also entering wine business. Young Atila Kovats came back home after finishing college in Hungary, and today he is responsible for winemaking. His wine carries authentic regional characteristics and present a good mixture of traditional and modern winemaking.
