ABOUT US
"Humility, love and craftsmanship are that give the QUALITY of the wine!"
Our cellar is located in one of the most beautiful Swabian villages of Central Europe, in Császártöltés, Főkáptalan Pincesor, which has 600 cellars.
The cellar rows of the village are special in their own way, as they are organically integrated into the village, forming a street and becoming part of the village.
The largest is the Főkáptalani cellars, but it is also worth mentioning the Káposztáskert cellars, the Kis-sori cellars, the Vidám sori cellars and the former Erzsébet utca cellars.
History:
According to folk tradition, the settlement is associated to Lipót I., who settled peasants to fill the Őrjegi marsh stretching from Akasztó towards Baja. After that, in the years 1743-1744, the then Archbishop of Kalocsa sent German families to the area, from whom he expected the viticulture to be boosted.

Wine region:
The Hajós-Baja Wine Region is situated on the left bank of the Danube between the River Danube and the Tisza.
In 1998, its 2,066-hectare area was separated from a part of the Great Plains wine region.
The Hajós-Baja wine region, which consists of 12 settlements, offers the possibility of producing many high-quality wines thanks to its sub-Mediterranean climate and its brown, loess and humus soil properties.
On a national scale, the Hajós-Baja wine region has the highest monthly and annual amounts of sunshine in the country.
The Mendler Pince winery has a history of more than 25 years.
Zoltán Mendler, the winemaker and owner of the winery, Mendler Pince, combines his long- standing experience with an innovative approach, professional knowledge and modern technology, as a result he produces wines of predictable quality year after year. He graduated as a food technologist in 1997, then, in addition to completing his further studies, he also acquired practical knowledge, working for 20 years as a head winemaker and plant manager in a winery.
He opened his own winery in 2017. The family works with 11 grape varieties on almost 10 hectares in the Hajós-Baja wine region.
The main varieties are: Generosa, Cserszegi Fűszeres, Irsai Olivér, Olaszrizling, Királyleányka, Kékfrankos and Zweigelt.
His white and rosé wines are produced in an oxygen-free environment, using a reductive method, i.e. chill-controlled fermentation. He produces his red wines using the old traditional method of continuous maceration in open vats with pomace caps, using the " muddling " method and aging in wooden barrels with a minimum of 1 year."
