Muzslai Terroire

The wine region along the Danube operates as a distinct viticultural area with its own unique identity. It has a sub-Mediterranean climate, and its bedrock is predominantly volcanic. In the Muzsla wine-growing area, the volcanic soil contains limestone and green clay.

• Annual precipitation is only 520-550 mm, making it a particularly dry region.

• Grape cultivation covers approximately 250 hectares in the Muzsla wine-growing area.
• While walking through the vineyards, one can discover fossilized shells and snail imprints in the sedimentary rock, remnants of the Pannonian Sea that once covered the Carpathian Basin.

• The village spans 5,196 hectares and has a population of 1,912.
• The earliest written record of Muzsla dates back to 1156.
