St. Andrea Winery – Eger Region

St. Andrea Winery and its father-son winemaking team— György Lőrincz Sr. and Jr.—must have won every wine award that exists in Hungary. Since founding the winery in 2002, the family has become arguably the top winery in the Eger region, and several of their wines are considered to be iconic labels in Hungary.

Although St. Andrea grows around twenty grape varieties, they put most of their passion and efforts into their blends: Egri Bikavér (“Bull’s Blood”) and Egri Csillag (“Star of Eger”). They were at the forefront of the Bull’s Blood revival—turning it from a bottom-shelf supermarket wine to a world class blend that really expresses the Eger terroir. And they were also among the first champions of Egri Csillag, Eger’s white wine answer to Bull’s Blood. St. Andrea produces around 200,000 bottles annually.
