The story of this wine:

CASSAVITA wine was created with the aim of returning the 14th century tradition whereby Košice had a monopoly of the wine trade. Later in the 16th century, Košice had its own vineyards in Tokaj. That's why we decided to bring back this tradition and symbolically hand over 1 hectare of vineyard to the city. From this land we produce CASSAVITA wine, which begins a new chapter for Košice wine. One euro from the sale of each bottle of this wine outside the volume destined for the City of Košice will be handed over to the restoration of the city's cultural monument.
