Producer
The Bock family has been growing vines and producing wine in the Villány wine region since 1850. A love of wine and the winemaking craft has been handed down from father to son over nine generations. At the beginning of his career József Bock harvested just over 0.5 hectares. Today he processes 145 hectares, producing 36 types of wine.
To this day, the Bock Estate operates as a family concern and is considered to be one of the top wineries, the most famous and glamourous names in the wine industry of Hungary. Their wines are made from grapes grown on Villány’s prestigious slopes: Jammertál, Ördögárok, Fekete-hegy, Bocor, Csillagvölgy, and Kopár.
