Abstract

The Szekszárd Wine Region holds prominent importance among the Hungarian wine regions, as literature confirms that the Romans had already cultivated grapes in the area as early as the 3rd century AD. The eastern part of the Szekszárd hills provides favorable topographical, soil, and climatic conditions, enabling the cultivation of characteristic grape varieties. Our research examined the changes in the location of vineyard areas within the wine region. We also investigated whether there have been any changes in the preferred topo- graphical characteristics (aspect, slope steepness) during different time periods in vineyard cultivation.
