Entry Description

Sauska Tokaj winery is located in the UNESCO protected historic wine region of Tokaj-Hegyalja, Hungary. The architectural concept was inspired by the “untouched untouchable” - the view of undulating vineyards. The lens-shaped forms of the visitor areas appear like gentle volumes floating above the landscape while the winemaking process, which requires constant temperature and a larger space, is located under the ground.
