‘Wine Basin Festival', Italian Cultural Institute, 8 December
- 7 Dec 2017 10:55 AM
Some 50 exhibitors from all parts of the Carpathian Basin
One entry ticket, ‘all you can taste’ of great wines
The main goal of this borderless wine festival is to introduce the unique and colourful wine culture of the Carpathian Basin, different regions, and mostly its traditional, indigenous grape varieties.
The Carpathian Basin has many very different regions, of which we could introduce most, all of the 6 wine regions of Hungary and plenty other regions in the neighbouring countries. Half of the exhibitors are coming from Hungary, the other half from beyond the borders.
Beyond the exhibitors from Hungary, we expect wine makers, gastronomic exhibitors and many more from the different region such as:
8 exhibitors from Transylvania (Romania) – wine, food, beer, music
6 exhibitors from the ‘Uplands’ (Slovakia) – wine, food, sweeties
3 exhibitors from Subcarpathia (Ukraine) – wine, food, pálinka
2 exhibitors from the ‘Southlands’ (Serbia) – wine
2 exhibitors from ‘Baranya Triangle’ (Croatia) – wine
2 exhibitors from ‘Muravidék’ (Slovenia) – wine
There will also be two masterclasses on ancient Hungarian wine grape varieties, the first is about Furmint, and the other is about an old, almost forgotten variety, called Bakator.
