Introduction

Balaton Wines Visitor Center – Discover the wines of Lake Balaton in one place

Welcome to the Balaton Wines Visitor Center, Hungary's first wine visitor centre dedicated to showcasing the remarkable diversity of the entire Lake Balaton wine region under one roof.

With an impressive selection of 300 wines from 70 wineries, the centre offers a unique opportunity to explore one of Hungary's most exciting wine destinations without having to travel from winery to winery.

From the volcanic landscapes of Badacsony and the distinctive wines of Somló to the elegant whites of Balatonfüred–Csopak and the diverse styles of Balatonboglár, every glass reveals a different side of Lake Balaton's rich winemaking heritage.

A wine journey around Lake Balaton

Whether you're already familiar with Hungarian wines or discovering them for the first time, the Balaton Wines Visitor Center invites you to experience the region through relaxed, sommelier-led wine tastings.

Explore the different wine districts surrounding Lake Balaton, discover local grape varieties and learn how the region's diverse landscapes, soils and winemaking traditions influence the wines in your glass.

With hundreds of wines represented, there's always something new to discover, from fresh, mineral-driven whites to expressive reds and distinctive regional specialities.

Wine, gastronomy and unforgettable views

Located at the beautiful Casa Christa Agriturismo estate, the visitor centre offers much more than a traditional wine tasting.

After your tasting, you can enjoy lunch or dinner at Casa Christa's Michelin Bib Gourmand-awarded restaurant, where thoughtful gastronomy complements the region's outstanding wines.

Take a leisurely walk through the estate's remarkable grove of approximately 2,000 almond trees, breathe in the fresh countryside air and admire the spectacular panoramic views of Lake Balaton.

It's the perfect setting to slow down, enjoy a glass of wine and experience the beauty of the Balaton Uplands.
