Good To Know: Credited for producing the first ever Tokaji Aszu, Oremus' history dates all the way back to the 1600's. The winery is located in Tolcsva where its underground cellars that date back all the way to the 13th century, store and age their naturally and incredibly sweet Tokaji wines.

Purchased in 1993 by the Alvarez family of the world renowned Vega Sicilia winery in Spain, Oremus has 33 hectares (81 acres) of vineyards. The estate's location has a continental microclimate and together with the nearby confluence of two rivers provide the ideal conditions that make it possible for their grapes to be affected by botrytis. The winemaking process practiced by Oremus has remained unchanged and has been used in the region for hundreds of years. The Aszú and Eszencia (both botrytis affected wines, require a slow fermentation process and years of aging in small barrels before release. Apart from their sweet wines, Oremus also produces a single dry wine from Furmint called Mandolás.
