The place

Ferenc Pince is a family business in Tihany with 37 years of csárda and a cellar the family has kept since the late 17th century. They make wine only from grapes of the historic Balatonfüred-Csopak region, mostly whites, and rosés and reds from the peninsula. They have a small wine museum opened in 2001, the Pocak Sonka Sarok ham corner and a guesthouse next door. From the top of the hill, the view over Balaton is the one in the photo.

When to go

The csárda is open from Easter to mid-October, Friday to Sunday from 12:00 to 21:00. At other times they only receive groups with a reservation. Out of season, eat in Balatonfüred.

What to order: Hungarian cooking on the terrace with a house white, and a tasting at the wine museum.
