Pongrácz

The story of Winery Pongrácz is inseparably tied to the life of Desiderius Pongrácz , a Hungarian count who found a new home in South Africa after the Second World War. In the Stellenbosch wine region he shaped the South African wine industry from 1973 onward as Chief Viticultural Adviser for the Distillers Corporation. He championed the introduction and spread of noble grape varieties such as Chardonnay and Pinot Noir , and he revolutionized wine-growing practices by insisting on careful selection of high-quality plant material.

Desiderius Pongrácz's vision was to improve the quality and diversity of the grape varieties grown in South Africa. His commitment led to the modernization of viticulture and laid the foundation for the reputation of South African wines today. He documented his expertise in his standard work “Practical Viticulture”.

The Pongrácz Winery honors his legacy by dedicating itself to producing sparkling wines using the traditional method, the Méthode Cap Classique, mainly composed of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, are a testament to his tireless dedication to quality and innovation in South African winemaking.
