Wine Cellars Miskolc, Avas
It is exclusive in Europe that there are over 800 wine cellars in the middle of a city. The magnificent atmosphere, pedestrians zones, alleys, the fantastic view make the wine cellars an excellent and real experience.
The Wine Cellars Miskolc, Avas commemorates the historic wine culture of the city, which was finished because of the phylloxera epidemic in 1880. The holes go parallel to each other towards the inside of the mountain 6-7 metres from each other. Most holes are 10-20 metres long, but there are as long holes as 50-100 metres!
The temperature in the holes is between 6-10°C depending on their depth in the mountain but it is the same in winter and summer. The majority of the cellars are at least 300 years old but hardly any are younger than 200 years old. The wineries are not as old, in 1702 only every 10 cellars had some kind of winery.
