Gál Tibor

Producer description of "Gál Tibor Pincészete - GIA"

The Gál Tibor winery is located in the north of Hungary, in the baroque city centre of Eger. It was founded in 1993 by the winemaker Tibor Gál (1958-2005). In addition to building up the winery in Eger, he became well known in Tuscany, where he ran the famous Ornellaia winery for a decade. He was also recognised for his work in the Italian regions of Friuli and Piedmont as well as in South Africa. Tibor Gál was therefore referred to as the "Flying Hungarian Wine Wizard"(Flying Winemaker). He died in a car accident in February 2005.

Activities

Following the death of the founder, the business has been run by his son Tibor Gál Jr. and his family since 2005. In Focus The work focuses on a new style of Egri Bikavér Cuvée (Eger Bull's Blood) and a classification of the vineyard sites in the Eger area via the Egri Bikavér. Exciting experiments are being carried out in the Síkhegy, Pajados and Nagy-Eged vineyards. In 2014, a multifunctional complex for wine tastings was opened in the centre of the baroque town on an area of 1,400 m², which also includes a 500-year-old tuff cellar labyrinth.

There is a vast number of sources on the web where one can acquire knowledge about wine. But none has the scope, timeliness and accuracy of the information in the encyclopaedia at wein.plus. I use it regularly and rely on it.
