Discover something very unusual here. With some grapes which grow on rocks, and a mineral ‘Stone Wine’ from Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon or indigenous Feteasca Neagra. Balla also makes a lovely indigenous Cadarca. On the foothills of Arad the former famous historical wine-growing region known as Minis, sank into oblivion in the XX. century’s whirl. The legendary red aszú, the spicy Cadarca, the velvety red wines and the mild Feteasca Regala-s were once known all across Europe. Now our Balla Geza strives for this wine-growing region since 1999 and winning back its fame.
