With the onset of autumn, the vineyards are at their natural best and one of the most exciting times of the year, the harvest, is upon us. At the Hars\u00e1nyi Winery, harvest is not just a job, it is a tradition, a community experience and the culmination of a year's hard work. With the drought at the end of August and the sudden surge in sugar levels, we had to react quickly: we started the harvest in the last days of the year to produce good quality dry wine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Harvest from Kir\u00e1ly Hill to Cir\u00f3ka<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n First we picked the fruit from the Kir\u00e1ly Hill vineyard,<\/strong> where harvesters picked muscat<\/strong> and furmint<\/strong> Next came the Cir\u00f3ka vineyard<\/strong>, where we harvested more furmint and h\u00e1rslevel\u0171 (lindenbl\u00e4ttriger),<\/strong> which are the basis of our sparkling and fresh wines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For our vineyard-selected wines, the Furmint grapes are harvested gradually from the Kir\u00e1ly-Hill<\/strong>, the Cir\u00f3ka<\/strong> and finally the Megyer vineyards<\/strong>. This year's highest yield was from the Cir\u00f3ka vineyard, although the droughty summer held back the volume, so the 2024 harvest was slightly smaller than in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We still have some vines left in our fields, saving for a late harvest. Our furmint and muscat are intended to be the base for our sweet wines and we hope to have the opportunity to make asz\u00fa this year. The autumn weather, which arrived in the second week of September, will hopefully positively affect the grapes still on the vine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The 2024 vintage wines of Hars\u00e1nyi Winery are once again promising, as our organically farmed grapes are healthy and have provided excellent raw material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A harvest experience at the Hars\u00e1nyi estate on 21st of September<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n For years, Hars\u00e1nyi Winery has been organising a traditional festive harvest<\/a> , which will take place on 21st of September this year.<\/strong> On this day, our guests will be able to get an insight into the excitement of grape picking and take part in the first steps of winemaking. But the harvest experience is not just about the work! There's lunch, wine tasting, harvest fun and lots of laughs. A special day when the beauty of nature and the love of wine culture come together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
