When you come to Budapest for the first time, going to wine bars to try out different Hungarian wines might not be the first thing that comes to your mind. Instead, you probably go to one or more ruin pubs to experience the unique nightlife in Budapest, where the wine list is usually limited to a very few types of wines.

Xpat Opinion: Heavenly Hungarian Wine, Part 5: Tokaj & Gizella Pince

- food & drink
I can easily name a few wine regions that without doubt deserves much more attention. Tokaj is one of those.

I can’t claim it came as a surprise to me; the quality of Tokaj Furmint. After all; the reason I finally visited the region and now had István Szepsy standing next to me, explaining about the complexity of the Szent Tamás site, was the amazing Tokaj wines I’ve had before, both dry and sweet.

Xpat Opinion: Heavenly Hungarian Wine, Part 3: Grof Buttler Chardonnay
- 19 Mar 2013 8:00 AM
- food & drink
There’s something about Chardonnay. Think you’ve heard me saying that before. No other grape has shown such adaptability around the world with amazing end results. In times when Riesling seems to receive all the accolade, it is easy to forget the grape that for so many of us started the wine passion. Burgundy may still be the region functioning as the prototype, but I don’t think anyone will ...
