Wine against FD
Wineries offer wine, wine lovers take it home, and the proceeds support the work against FD. Every bottle comes with a personal story.
Six bottles, six stories
Selected Hungarian wines from winemakers, growers and vineyard managers who have a personal connection to their wine. Every box is a small journey through Hungary's wine regions.
- A box will hold 6 bottles from different wineries and several wine regions. We put the boxes together once enough wine offers have arrived.
- Where the winemaker, grower or vineyard manager records one, you also get a link with the wine to a 1–5 minute video in which they tell what this wine or these grapes mean to them.
- Exactly which wines are in your box is revealed when you open it.
- Wineries may also offer VIP wine tastings (4 people, ideally with the winemaker or owner in person). Before launch we will explain how buyers of the wine box can get them.
- After costs, the proceeds fund FD Finder's work: spotting infected vines early.
HUF 19,900 per box, delivered to your door. Cash on delivery.
For now we deliver to addresses in Hungary only.
The web shop is still being developed. For now you are telling us you would buy: this is not a contract yet, and you pay nothing. When we launch, we will e-mail you the details, and you can still cancel free of charge and without giving a reason.
I would like the wine box
For wineries
We welcome wine offers, free of charge for now, and we are looking for a collection cellar in each wine region. Wineries that offer wine are added to our public list.
How does it work?
- Our request: 1 bottle of wine per hectare, in whole cartons. A carton holds 6 bottles, so we round up to whole cartons.
- For example: 2 ha → 1 carton, 18 ha → 3 cartons.
- We pack whole cartons too, so the least packaging is used.
- This is a request, not a requirement. If you can offer less, for example two cartons from a large estate, we are very glad of that too.
- For now we ask for the wine as a free offer.
- We ask for a wine you have a personal connection to: the wine, the vineyard or the grapes. Tell its story in a 1–5 minute video; buyers get the link together with the wine.
- You may put a promotional flyer or coupon of your own in the box next to your wine. You can also give an online coupon: mark it on the form and send the coupon by e-mail once you have the details.
- We would be delighted if you also offered a VIP wine tasting for 4 people, ideally hosted by the winemaker or owner in person. The tastings are meant for buyers of the wine box; we will share the details before launch. This, too, is a request, not a requirement.
- Your entry stays on the list for one year.
Delivery and the other details follow after you apply.
Wine requirements
- Still wine in a 0.75-litre bottle, with a market authorisation ID and a legally compliant label.
- In saleable condition for at least 12 months.
We are looking for collection cellars
In each wine region we are looking for a winery that acts as a collection point for the wines of the area. From there we ship them on by pallet. If your cellar would take this on, please tick it in the form.
Where does the wine go?
We put together mixed boxes of six bottles from different wineries' wines. Buyers do not know in advance which wine goes into their box; where the winemaker records one, they also get the wine's story on video. After costs, the proceeds fund FD Finder's work.
