Situated on a volcanic hill adjacent to the historical road M37 that traverses northern Hungary, this picturesque vineyard is comprised of rolling slopes and high terraces that reach elevations up to 230 meters. Eagles circle overhead guarding the precious fruit from the multitude of field creatures that inhabit the hill. Below the terraces, early morning fog from the nearby Bodrog River creates a white canopy covering the lower vineyard during the autumn months.

The outstanding quality of the fruit from Lapis allows Királyudvar to consistently produce distinctive first-class wines. Rich, nutrient-filled soil flows down from the higher terraces to the lower areas to provide the berries for the company's Furmint, Hárslevelű and Aszú wines. With some of the best exposures on the hill, the middle terraces of Lapis provide the berries used in Kiralyudvar's signature single-vineyard Lapis Aszu dessert wine. The focused expression of the Lapis terroir remains consistent across these wines; wet stone in the nose, a muscular structure and steely minerality in the finish.
