Join our wine tasting for a crash course on Hungary’s increasingly fabulous wines! This sommelier-led two-hour evening tasting is held in our own wine tasting room and independent wine shop (The Tasting Table Budapest), centrally located in the Palace District. It features a selection of 8 great Hungarian wines, generous food pairings, and plenty of knowledge straight from the sommelier! Hungary’s emerging wine regions are being increasingly recognized internationally, but you still won’t find many of the most interesting wines outside of the borders! Hungary has a wine culture with a long history and deep traditions, but today’s young winemakers are also building state-of-the-art wineries and experimenting with new styles. This tasting will give you a good overview of Hungarian wine—including the history, the major regions, the important varietals, unique characteristics and styles, and promising trends. By the end of the tasting you’ll have a good understanding of Hungary’s place in the world of wine (and plenty of good wine - and food - in your belly). The final wine is a Tokaj aszú wine, one of the world’s greatest sweet wines (and an essential part of Hungary’s wine story).
