TheAbbey Winery in Pannonhalma , Hungary , has one of the Old wine lay down traditions in Europe . In 996 , Benedictine monks square up on the Sacred Hill of Pannonia — and they ’ve always been tight relate with viticulture and winemaking introduced by the Romans .

At the outset of the 1900s , the Archabbey had about 100 hectares — or 250 estate — of vineyards in the direct neighbourhood of Pannonhalma . But after the Communist coup d’etat that followed World War II , the single - company state confiscated the winery , place a temporary end to the century - one-time tradition .

Ten years after Communist formula failed , in 2003 , the Abbey Winery Pannonhalma was reestablished with 2,000 square meter ( or more than 21,500 square feet ) of floor outer space and a storage capacity of 3,000 hectolitres ( or almost 80,000 gallons ) . A few days ago I was lucky enough to get a peep inside the ancient cellars to see this state of the art winery . The following photos will show you how such an old custom has been able to exist over C — and be revived in an ultimately up - to - date form .
