The Gere family established the Gere Winery right after the change of regime in 1991. Attila and his wife Katalin (and later their two children as well) spent the first few years of the 1990s laying the foundations of the family empire. Gere was not only a pioneer of quality winemaking in Hungary, but also a pioneer of Hungarian wine tourism. The same year he founded his winery, Gere also established the first Hungarian winemaker hotel – the Gere Panzió. Eventually, the family opened a four-star wellness hotel and restaurant called the Crocus Wine Hotel in the center of Villány. Even before the creation of Kopar, Gere was named Winemaker of the Year in 1994, which is a prestigious award in Hungary. Gere is synonymous with the Villány region, and Villány is synonymous with Gere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Kopár vineyard is south-facing and located on the Szársomlyó hill in Villány—a steep, rocky slope that from afar looks almost lifeless. With its sharply pointed top, this hill is iconic for the Villány region. Its name translates to barren, but some of the best red wines in Hungary come from this vineyard. One of these wines is the eponymous Kopar blend produced by Attila Gere Winery, which is probably one of the most famous wines of Villány. Kopar was one of the first wines produced in the modern era of Hungarian winemaking (which started after the end of communism in 1989) that became truly famous in Hungary and received international recognition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its very first release in 1997, Kopar became a symbol of the Villány region, and also Gere’s signature wine. Its name became well known in Hungary and was associated with the highest quality. It became the wine to buy for special birthdays, anniversaries, as a gift for important business partners … or anyone you truly wanted to impress. Full-bodied and age-worthy, it is still one of the most sought-after Hungarian wines and enjoys great interest in Hungary—tasting groups gather for vertical tastings of Kopar, and its fans buy cases of it to keep in their cellars for years.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VIDA Wine and Spirits Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57462824010110,"sku":"B01023631","price":97.14,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0985\/3766\/8990\/files\/Attila-Gere_Kopar_-2018.png?v=1779790457","url":"https:\/\/www.vida.bg\/en\/products\/kopar-2016-red-cuvee-magnum-attila-gere-1-5","provider":"VIDA Wine and Spirits Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
