Czurda Vineyard
Dr. Henrik Czurda was born in Budapest, and he escaped from Hungary with his parents and just two suitcases when he was very young. He attended school in Zurich and finished his studies with a PhD in Economics and Applied Computer Science. He worked for top-management strategy consulting companies for twenty-five years, including The Boston Consulting Group, and has served in line functions in various businesses for over ten years. He was a member of top management as a CFO for five years. As a wine enthusiast, food lover, and passionate cook, he is a lifelong winemaking fan who always dreamed of having his own vineyard. In November 2014, he grabbed an opportunity and acquired a beautiful piece of land in Győrszemere, which had been purchased by his father as a symbolic compensation for their former lands, which had been expropriated from his grandfather. Reflecting on the past, Henrik decided to apply the expertise and sophistication he acquired in his career and his outstanding merits to the winemaking process with three key values in mind: dedication, innovation, and excellence.
