The Egerszólát vineyard is named after the Virgin Mary. In 2007, the St. Andrea winery erected a statue in honour of the Virgin of the Hungarians.
The wine comes from cooler and thinner, clay soils. Its vineyard characteristics are white petalled flowers on the nose, wet stone, with a peculiarly salty finish on the palate.
