Situated at the eastern end of the chain of hills in the Mád region, Királyudvar's vineyard in Becsek provides all the berries for the company's Demi-Sec, a semi-dry white wine. Beginning almost a decade ago in early '00, Királyudvar's three primary blocks in the Becsek vineyard underwent a carefully multi-staged renewal program. The positive results from this extended renewal can be seen in the consistency and character of each vintage Demi-Sec from this terroir.

The stone-strewn concave volcanic slope of the Becsek field mixed with heavy yellow and red clays generates a solid, classical structure and fuller body in the wine. Warm southern exposures and the robust nature of the 30-year old vines allow for a longer vegetative period enhancing the overall character of the ripened berries.
