Detailed itinerary
1
Optimus Winery is a small family estate in Etyek, where winemaking began as a hobby in 2019 and quickly grew into a passion passed down through the family. Today, they craft elegant sparkling wines alongside fresh rosés and whites, sharing both tradition and experimentation in Hungary’s leading sparkling wine region.

This family winery traces its roots back over 200 years to a cellar in Páty, before growing into a modern estate on Etyek’s Öreghegy. Guests can taste fresh whites and rich barrel-aged reds, made from carefully hand-selected grapes.
3
Füzik Pincészet is a family-run winery in Etyek, where every step from vineyard to bottle is done by hand with the help of each family member. Guests can enjoy fresh whites, elegant Chardonnays, and reds aged in French oak, all crafted with care in their traditional hillside cellars.
