The Arboretum
A quality dry white wine that is preferred due to its freshness first and foremost by the ladies. (Not to be confused with Governor Cuomo!). The returning will be hosted not only with wines, but also with a hearty snack. We enjoyed the homemade specialities from the own mangalica pig, that is so famous because of its low cholesterol content. In the Tourism Office from a dairy farm in the Kali basin in Salfold tells us we should seek quiet times. The protected Meierhof is located in upper Balaton, in a wonderful environment. Year-round programs are held in the Meierhof.
An ideal trip for parents with children, who can experience the Hungarian grey cattle, mangalica, Racka and many other animals. If you want, for which there is horseback riding on pony or multi-day horse-riding courses. Is something special tour through the untouched nature even the horse-drawn carriages to the ruins of the Abbey of the order of Paulaner. The highlight of the farmstead is the demonstration of the Puszta Funfers. Back of the Meierhof the Badacsony distillery waiting for us in Badacsonyors. The family business was founded in 2011 after two years of planning and supplies for 2012 booze in premium quality. The speciality of the distillery is the pomace brandy which comes exclusively from grapes and pomace of the Badacsonyer mountain.
Slightly above the distillery located 5 approx. Hectares big folly Arboretum, where man has an enchanting view of Lake Balaton. The Arboretum is home to a variety of Cypress, cedar and pine trees. In the Arboretum also is viticulture and this is a dry white quality wine the budai Zold 2011 since 1878 wine of the Arboretum. Towards the end of our stay we recommended wine cellar in Kaptalantoti as a tip of the Istvandy. It is an exceptional wine cellar with hospitality in a quiet location with outstanding views of vineyards and the Balaton. It is pleasant the excellent wines of the House on the large outdoor terrace to enjoy. The culinary specialty of the House is the Mangalitsa roast from the stone oven. The wine cellar is recommended for demanding and really deserved an own review. Unfortunately, we could make this time no interview with the owner to learn more about the philosophy of the House. This place, where we are, is the most wonderful place in the world. Once be thousands and thousands of travelers from foreign countries come here, if you saw already everything nice here then all together to see the wonderful”! He is right the very worthiest Mr Bischoff and we can only recommend to consult the Badacsony as quickly as possible before really all travellers would suddenly enjoy the richness and the beauty of nature.
