2 WELCOME The Wines of Hungary UK project brings great value wines into the UK with an emphasis on quality. Launched in 204, Wines of Hungary UK, is the key project of Wine Communications, a London based wine marketing and communications agency. We represent a group of established Hungarian winemakers with ambitions to introduce their wines to the UK market and help them in building sales. Wine Communications works on both business to business and business to consumer level. We work with wine makers and assist them through each steps of the distribution channel, either with market entry strategy into the UK market to lead generation, or driving volumes with sales support communication and promotional activities. Hungarian wines have been going from strength to strength in the UK over the last few years. According to the WSTA Annual Wine Report, Hungarian wines were amongst the top 0 importers of both white and red wines to the UK in, bringing in 69,498 and 5, 229 hectolitres respectively. Our aim is to build on this momentum with events like today, providing education and expertise from within the industry. The consumer demand for Hungarian wines is significant. Importers are adding to their lists and we are seeing more Hungarian wines in Michelin Starred and fine dining restaurants in London than ever before The wines are high quality and Hungary s volcanic soils allow lovely minerality, which makes them particularly food friendly. This had been helped by the outstanding vintage that Hungary had in,, and 208 is looking promising so it s a great opportunity to join us and try the wines.

7 HEIMANN WINERY / SZEKSZÁRD Characteristics of Szekszárd. Shown through our taste. UK Focus: On-trade, independent. Heimann Kadarka is available at The Wine Society. About the winery: the story of the Swabians: After the end of the Ottoman occupation of Hungary in the 8th century Swabian farmers were encouraged by royal incentives to settle down in the depopulated regions. They brought along their advanced wine producing culture and entrepreneurial, hard-working spirit. They planted vine on the abandoned hillsides and revitalized trade. The Heimanns belonged to the lower street Swabians in Szekszárd and were one of the enterprising and hard-working farmer families. The Szekszárd appellation covers the easternmost stretches of the Transdanubian Hills. The thick loess soil of the slopes produces round wines with elegant, fruity aromas. The Mediterranean influence makes the autumns warm and sunny enabling us to harvest at optimal ripeness. The family believes that the future of our estate lies with local varieties, their commitment is reflected in the structure of their new plantings, viticultural experiments and wines are farmed on an organic way. Ferenc Heimann on returning from the war, handed over the management of the family estate to his son, who was instrumental in the implementation of the first large scale cordon-trained vine plantings, the establishment of the local cooperative for vine crofts and also the founding of the local winery Aliscavin. Zoltán) and his wife, Ágnes have left their respective careers as successful economists to return to viticulture and winemaking. Since 990 they have reorganised the family estate. 6

Zoltán Jr. studied viticulture and enology in Geisenheim, Montpellier, Bordeaux and Udine. After 6 years of studies, he is now taking over the control over viticulture and winemaking responsibilities.

8 Zoltán Jr. studied viticulture and enology in Geisenheim, Montpellier, Bordeaux and Udine. After 6 years of studies, he is now taking over the control over viticulture and winemaking responsibilities. The wine region of Szekszárd, known mostly for its famous Kadarka red wine, has been noted for its wine culture since Roman times and became one of the main centres of Hungarian red wine production in the 5th century. As the climate of the sunny wine region is rather balanced, excellent red grapes can grow on the mostly loess lands. Szekszárd reds are known for their velvety texture, and often show a lot of elegance. Szekszárd, along with Eger, is also one of the two regions that produce the famous Hungarian Bikavér.
