Budapest Wine Festival 2015 http://www.abouthungarianwine.com/events/budapest-wine-festival-2015/ http://www.abouthungarianwine.com/events/budapest-wine-festival-2015/#comments Wed, 12 Aug 2015 17:31:57 +0000 http://www.abouthungarianwine.com/?p=5009 The Budapest Wine Festival 2015 will be held on 9-13 September. Slogan of this year’s festival: „Borúra derű, derűre bor” – bad mood-good mood, good mood – good wine.

The Budapest Wine Festival, first of all, is aimed to provide guidelines to foreign visitors less familiar with Hungarian wines with offering the selection of most significant and characteristic brands. The organizers are keen on offering exceptional wines made from the highest possible number of vine specialties.

The renewed webpage of the festival provides some kind of guidelines to the visitors, but some of the information so far is not public. As soon as we obtain more information, our article will be continuously updated.

In parallel with the Festival, the Wine University will be open again, where well-known experts will hold lectures to wine lovers and wine experts who would like to learn more about the subject. Needless to say, interesting wine tastings will accompany these lectures.

This year organizers will pay more attention to gastronomy. In addition to the usual stands, several new exhibitors will introduce themselves.

In each year the wine seminar is engaged – first of all – in current subjects, presented by well-known and accredited experts and followed by tasting of excellent wines. In this year we will have an opportunity to learn about the complex rejuvenation of one of Hungary’s largest winemaker company – the Tokaj Trading House (Tokaj Kereskedőház).
Among others, the manager of the company will offer a presentation. The chief winemaker will show specialties of the House: samples from the barrels of the 5 and 6 puttony aszú and the liquid gold, the Essencia.

People who are uncertain about what to taste, we recommend the thematic wine tasting route called “Discover Hungary’s flavors”. Award winning wines of last years’ VinAgora Competition (Central-European International Wine Competition) will be introduced along this route.

During the first two days of the festival cellars will offer advertised wine pairs to the guests as part of the “Borpár program – Wine-pair program”. Tasting of the pairs will offer an opportunity to compare various characteristics of wines – such as baroque fermentation, vintage, region or aging time – with using actual testing of the flavors.
