After opening the borders in Hungary for foreign investors, the Alvarez family, also known from Bodegas Vega Sicilia, purchased this winery in 1993. Oremus is one of the great old producers of Tokaj, descriptions have been found from the 14th century. The Alvarez family has spared no effort to make this wonderful company an absolute top producer. In 2003, Oremus was named Winery of the Year in Hungary. In addition to the classic large sweet Tokaj, one also produces a dry white furmint that is not to be missed. This is characterized by strikingly complex fruit, liveliness and fine new wood tones.

In 1991 the Spanish family Álvarez, owner of the famous Vega Sicilia, started negotiations to take over the vineyards in Tokaj. In 1993 Vega Sicilia acquired the company and the vineyards gave it the name 'Oremus'. "Oremos" in Spanish means "Let us pray" and this is Oremus in Latin.

The history of the vineyards of this domain in Tokaj goes back to 1616 when Prince György Rákóczi acquired the vineyards of what is now called Oremus.
In 1631 the Calvinist pastor Maté Szepsi Lackó made a wine made from botrytis-affected grapes for the first time. It became the first Aszú.
In 1993, Vega Sicila acquired the company and named it "Oremus." A great deal was invested in renewing the company and a technical team from Vega Sicilia ensured that - with respect for tradition - a high-quality wine was made. oremus

Vega Sicilia now has five special domains in the group. Oremus plays a special role in this. They are wines with character and can be used gastronomically.

The 2006 Tokaji Eszencia was released in 2018. This is the top among the dessert wines and has an intense bouquet of delicious jam, mandarin, allspice and dried quince. This wine is spicy and lively. The taste is sweet with layers of marmalade and orange peel. It builds up in the mouth with a powerful finish and has an enormous length. All Oremus wines are so beautiful, but this top model does hit everything but in short, this is also required at Vega Sicilia
