The Velich family winery is located in the heart of the Lake Neusiedl - Seewinkel nature reserve in Apetlon. The place is surrounded by numerous lakes - here called Lacken. These create a special microclimate that has proven particularly conducive to viticulture. Heinz Velich currently cultivates twelve hectares of vineyards, which are planted exclusively with white wine varieties. Chardonnay accounts for 45 percent of this area, about a quarter is planted with Welschriesling, and the rest is shared by Muskat-Ottonel and Bouvier.
The light, fruity wines such as Welschriesling and Muskat-Ottonel are vinified in steel tanks. Chardonnay, representing wines rich in extract but finesse, is preferably fermented and aged in used barrique. The Chardonnay with the name "Tiglat" has been considered for years as one of the best variety representatives of the country. He is joined by the second dry Chardonnay of the house, the "Darscho", and a cuvée of Chardonnay, Welschriesling and Sauvignon Blanc called "TO" (which means "lake" in Hungarian). Sweet wines are pressed only in suitable years and vinified for the most part in barrique.
The winery places particular emphasis on high maturity and regionally typical character of the wines. The Falstaff magazine awarded Heinz Velich as "Winemaker of the Year 2012".
