Heimann Fiai
„I’ve been very lucky that my parents supported me by sending me abroad to study“ – says Zoltán Heimann.
After the initial traineeships in Alto Adige and several Hungarian wineries, the son of Ágnes and Zoltán Heimann finished his winemaking studies in Geisenheim, Montpellier and Udine. Further summer- and harvest internships followed at Caiarossa in Tuscany, Clemens Busch at the Mosel and Mac Forbes in the Australian Yarra-valley. The unmistakable taste of an origin intrigued him evermore.
After returning to his homeland in the southern Hungarian town of Szekszárd, it rapidly became obvious, that recreating the lineup of classical cuvées of the Heimann Family Winery will not be enough for Zoltán. He got right down to the autochthonous expression of the region. The delicate Kadarka and spicy Kékfrankos provide him with best material.
