PALOTA DÜLÖ ...
... got its name in the middle of the 15th century from the manor house built here by the Hunyadi family. The vineyard was located just behind it. According to records of 1600, one of the best and most expensive areas of Tállya was this estate, and it is also mentioned as an outstanding aszú-growing place, where the grapes grow well and produce complex wines. According to an often quoted story at the Council of Trient, in 1562, the Bishop of Pécs György Draskovich served a sweet wine from the Palota vineyard to Pope Pius IV who, upon tasting the wine, replied by saying “Summum pontificem talia vina decent”, meaning “Tállya wine worthy of a Pope”.
