Winery

Fundus Regius is the fulfilled dream of former mathematician Jan Regenda and his wife Helena.

Building a small family-type winery in the place where he was born meant to clean the hill where he used to work in vineyards as a boy.

It was overgrown with blackberry bushes and trees.

New vine (34 acres) was planted there in 2004.

The hill is in altitude of 250m and it is a unique sunny place with volcanic stones and tufa of black, reddish and brown colour.

The vine  has to fight the difficult stony conditions which makes it stronger and healthier.

It is the most eastern vineyard in Slovakia with continental climate.

Area is rich in berries, herbs, mushrooms and wildlife including birds of prey.

A combination of soil, climate, tradition and utmost care both in vineyard and in cellar creates a unique product which we are proud to offer.

Our wines are solely made from self-grown grapes with no enzymes or preservatives added. Having a high extract and mineral character they are ideal for long maturation to become archive wines.

Grapes are born on the volcanic soil of the Vihorlat volcano on the southern slopes of the Carpathian mountains.

Jancis Robinson tasted our red wines in 2015 and honoured them with the title “very serious”.
