St. Andrea Wines

Barely three decades old, St. Andrea has risen to become one of Hungary’s most respected wineries, proving that greatness can emerge quickly when guided by a clear vision. Founded by Dr György Lőrincz and his family, the estate was born from a desire to resurrect Eger’s heritage grapes and to craft terroir‑specific wines that reflect the region’s rhyolite tuff, brown forest clay and limestone soils.

The winery’s philosophy privileges old varieties such as Olaszrizling, Hárslevelű, Furmint, Kadarka and Kékfrankos over international grapes, and this fidelity has paid off. St Andrea’s Egri Bikavér – a complex blend built around Kékfrankos – expresses sour cherry, plum and savoury spice with vibrant acidity and mineral precision, while Egri Csillag delivers a bright, zesty white blend of local grapes marked by orchard fruit, citrus and flinty tension.

The estate’s commitment to low yields, careful barrel ageing and scrupulous vineyard work has earned global accolades, including a Best in Show at the Decanter World Wine Awards and inclusion among the Top 50 Wines of the World. Whether you seek a layered red, a refreshing white or an age‑worthy single‑vineyard Furmint, this collection showcases the breadth of St Andrea’s craft and its ability to marry tradition with modern polish.
