The Disznókő Winery, located in the Tokaj region of Hungary, is a renowned producer of high-quality and award-winning wines. The winery has a long and rich history dating back to the 16th century, making it one of the oldest wineries in the Tokaj region.

The Tokaj region, also known as Tokaj-Hegyalja, is located in the northeastern part of Hungary and is famous for its sweet white wines made from Furmint, Hárslevelű, and Yellow Muscat grapes. The region has a unique microclimate with a combination of volcanic soils, warm summers, and cool autumns, which are essential for producing the famous Tokaji Aszú wines.

The Disznókő vineyards cover an area of 250 acres and are situated on the southern slopes of the Tokaj hills. The vineyards are planted with a variety of grapes, including Furmint, Hárslevelű, Yellow Muscat, and Zéta, which are carefully tended by hand to ensure the highest quality of grapes for their wines.

The winery is best known for its sweet and luscious Tokaji Aszú wines, which are made using the traditional method of botrytis or "noble rot."
