Pannonhalmi Főapátság (Pannonhalma Archabbey) Rajnai Rizling is a premium white wine produced in the Pannonhalma wine region of northwestern Hungary. The history of winemaking at this site dates back to 996 AD, when Benedictine monks first established the monastery and introduced viticulture based on Roman traditions.

After decates of state ownership during the communist era, the winery was reborn in 2003 through a partnership between the Archabbey and financial institutions. Today, the winery operates a modern, gravity-flow facility designed to respect the delicate nature of the grapes. The Rajnai Rizling (Rhine Riesling) is one of their flagship varieties, benefiting from the region's unique cool climate and limestone-rich soils, which yield wines with characteristic mineral notes and high aging potential.
