8. Description of the link(s)

8.1. Natural factors

The Pannon wine region comprises four wine-growing areas located in the hilly area bounded by the River Danube, the River Drava and Lake Balaton, and on the southern slopes of the Villány and Mecsek ranges situated between them. These are the Pécs, Villány, Szekszárd and Tolna wine-growing areas.

The base rock of the Tolna and Baranya hills is argillaceous and sandy sedimentary soil, which is covered by loess and loam. The limestone blocks of the Villány Hills and the Mecsek are in many places covered by loess and loam soils.

The soil of the Pannon wine region is very favourable for wine-growing.

The climate is continental, with major Mediterranean influences from the south.

The annual average temperature is 10-12 °C. The average number of sunshine hours exceeds 2 000 per year. With a few exceptions, the precipitation is approximately 600 mm.

The region’s climate and weather are particularly suitable for the production of both white and black grapes.

8.2. Wine: Human factors

The area is one of Hungary’s oldest wine-producing regions. Viticulture was brought to Hungary, i.e. Pannonia, first by the Celts and then by the Romans. The significance of viticulture in this region is also supported by the discovery of artefacts.

In those early days, people living in the region observed the natural conditions that provided an excellent basis for viticulture and wine production. There are several written records of wines produced in this region dating back as far as the early Middle Ages. Well-tended vineyards are to be found at all the abbeys that were established in great numbers during the Árpád era.

The flourishing of viticulture was hindered only by the wars with the Turks, for some 150 years.

Local wine-making was developed further by the Germans who settled in the wine region in the 18th century. The Serbs who settled in this period introduced the production of Kadarka, from which red wine was produced using a new method: fermentation on the skins.

From among the dozens of cultivated varieties, two grape varieties used for the production of red wine became decisive during the replanting in the 18th century: one was Kadarka, which was brought from the Balkans by the Serbs while fleeing the Turks; the other was Kékoportó, which was introduced to Villány by German settlers and is said to be of Portuguese origin. The region is better known for its red wines, but white varieties predominated in the areas of Siklós, Tolna and the Mecsek: Olaszrizling, Hárslevelű, Cirfandli and Furmint.

The red wine production method of Balkan origin was introduced with Kadarka. Trodden blue grapes were fermented in large wooden tanks on farms in the vineyards of Szekszárd and in press-houses built in the cellars on the edge of the village of Villány. Following fermentation, the top of the marc base was sealed with mud and aged for a month. The wines were then poured into barrels. In Southern Transdanubia, brighter, pleasantly fresh-tasting red wines known as ‘siller’ or ‘fuchsli’ were produced by shorter maceration on skins.

Both red and white wines are produced in the Pannon wine region, but red wines have become more significant nowadays. At the beginning of the 20th century Kadarka and Kékoportó still provided the basis for red wines, but in recent decades Kadarka has been replaced by Kékfrankos, and the following international varieties have become widespread: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Bordeaux-type cuveé wines aged in new wooden barrels are often produced from these varieties. Olaszrizling, Hárslevelű, Rajnai rizling and Chardonnay are the dominant types of white varieties.

8.3. Wine: Description of the wines

Generally speaking, the wines of the demarcated area are medium or full-bodied thanks to the south-facing slopes, and thus warmer climatic conditions prevail, which leads to a higher degree of sugar ripening and a medium or high alcohol content and is in proportion to the fullness of the body. The mature style also manifests itself in fruitiness and strong tannins (of the red wines).

8.4. Wine: Presentation and demonstration of the causal link

Owing to the Pannon wine region’s continental climate, combined with Mediterranean influences, and its south-facing slopes, Pannon wines are principally of a Mediterranean type and are characterised by a complex, elegant acidity. Owing to the sedimentary subsoil of the Tolna and Baranya hills, the region’s wines have a predominantly fruity taste. Thanks to the high number of sunshine hours, the region’s wines are typically full-bodied, with a higher alcohol content. Owing to the natural conditions, Pannon rosé and red wines contain silky tannins.

Because of the Mediterranean influence, the region’s grape and wine producers are also able to harvest late-ripening white and red wine grape varieties (e.g. Olasz rizling, Furmint, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon) when they are ripe and have a high sugar content.

Owing to the often favourable autumn weather conditions, it is possible to harvest both raisined and over-ripe grapes. This is evidenced by the widespread production of wines from late-harvest, select-harvest and raisined grapes in this region. These superior-quality wines combine the expertise which the region’s wine producers have built up over the centuries and passed on from one generation to the next with its natural conditions and the production potential of local varieties.

The people who live in the Pannon wine region possess a knowledge and love of viticulture that dates back centuries. The Swabians who settled in the territory of the Pannon wine region laid the foundations for today’s viticulture and wine production. Family wineries set up in the early 1990s re-established wine production and have been able to make higher-quality products, for which they have also found a market.

8.5. Sparkling wine: Human factors

In addition to the natural and human factors described for wine, the following applies to Pannon sparkling wines:

The production of sparkling wine in the Pannon wine region stretches back 100 years. Sparkling wines produced after the first sparkling wine plant was established in 1912 were very successful and made a name for themselves nationally.

Producers in the Pannon wine sub-region revived the traditions of making sparkling wine, placing Pannon sparkling wine on the market again.

The products owed their success to the know-how and renown of local grape growers and wine makers. A key feature of Pannon sparkling wine production is the traditional process and bottle fermentation, as a result of which the secondary flavours and aromas develop in addition to the primary fruity fragrances.

8.6. Sparkling wine: Description of the wines

As a result of longer ageing, the white sparkling wines range in colour from pale yellow to golden yellow, the rosé sparkling wines from onion skin to raspberry pink and the red sparkling wines from ruby to deep red. The fragrance and taste of Pannon sparkling wines are determined by the primary, intensely fruity or spicy (in the case of rosé and red) taste and aroma substances characteristic of the grapes; these are complemented by secondary aromas. Pannon sparkling wines have fresh acids.

8.7. Sparkling wine: Presentation and demonstration of the causal link

The wine region comprises Hungary’s four southern wine-growing areas. The local climate is determined by continental and Mediterranean influences. The number of sunshine hours is greater than the national average. The annual amount and relatively even distribution of precipitation and the relatively good water retention properties of the soils both help to ensure that the vines have an adequate supply of water during the vegetation period. This is particularly important in the case of sparkling wines, as it prevents the formation in the wine of vegetal, musty odours and immature, harsh acids that would be accentuated by the carbon dioxide resulting from the second alcoholic fermentation.

The long vegetation period and the high heat sum ensure optimum conditions for the grapes used to make the base wines for the sparkling wines to ripen properly and for their fresh acids to be preserved.

The location of the vineyards, the Mediterranean climatic conditions, the clayey, nutrient-rich calcareous-loess soils and grape varieties best suited to the production area combine to give Pannon sparkling wine its unique character, which preserves the complex fruity or spicy fragrance and aroma substances, and its freshness and elegant acidity, even after the second alcoholic fermentation. Sparkling wines with elegant, delicate secondary fragrances resulting from the longer ageing that is part of the traditional production process are typical of the wine region.

8.8. Aerated semi-sparkling wine: Human factors

In addition to the human factors already described for wine, the following applies to Pannon aerated semi-sparkling wine:

Aerated semi-sparkling wine is a product category that is relatively new to the Pannon wine region. The region’s producers started to produce it from the grapes traditionally grown here and used to make the base wine for sparkling wine, and they had success in marketing it on the domestic market.

The product owes its commercial and economic success to the know-how and renown of local grape growers and wine makers. Pannon aerated semi-sparkling wine is typically produced from varieties grown here, the time of harvesting being selected in such a way as to ensure that, during processing, the grapes’ natural primary taste and aroma substances can be preserved; the addition of carbon dioxide prior to bottling has the effect of accentuating this.

8.9. Aerated semi-sparkling wine: Description of the wines

Pannon aerated white, rosé and semi-sparkling wines typically have a harmonious acid content, are lively and have fresh, complex fruity aromas.

8.10. Aerated semi-sparkling wine: Presentation and demonstration of the causal link

The region comprises Hungary’s four southern wine-growing areas. The local climate is determined by continental and Mediterranean influences. This is the part of Hungary where spring arrives first, and the number of sunshine hours is higher than the national average. The annual amount and relatively even distribution of precipitation and the relatively good water retention properties of the soils both help to ensure that the grapes have an adequate supply of water during the vegetation period. This is particularly important in the case of the aerated semi-sparkling wines, as it prevents the formation in the wine of vegetal, musty odours and immature, harsh acids that would be accentuated by the carbon dioxide present in the wine.

The location of the vineyards, the Mediterranean climate, the clayey, nutrient-rich calcareous-loess soils and varieties that are well-suited to the production area combine to give the product a unique character, as reflected in the complex fruity taste and aroma substances, freshness and elegant acidity.
