Everything that is wine!

Hungary is a wine drinking, wine making nation which has a huge history in wine production since Roman times when the armies of the ancient empire planted vine in the valleys of Danube. After the collapse of the Roman empire wine making remained part of the region when Árpád, the first Hungarian leader upon the nations arrival to the heart of Europe in 896, rewarded his followers with vineyards in today’s Tokaj region.

The 16th century saw came to existence the full-bodied red Bikavér (Bull’s Blood) and the sweet dessert wine Tokaji Aszú which are the most famous Hungarian wine varieties. Other interesting fact is that Hungary could also claim the world’s first ever vineyard classification in Tokaj (1730).

Thanks to Hungary’s natural gifts the winemakers in the country are able to produce domestic and international wine varieties on a very high level. The unique terroir, the mineral rich soil and the warmth of the Hungarian summer sun all create a flavor that is reflecting in every glass of wine bottled in Hungary. In a sip of Hungarian vino one can taste the experience of wine making, that was collected over generations of artisan wine production in the past centuries, and the creativity of new age winemakers.
