Food and Wine Tasting in Budapest City Center with Sommelier

We met with Lidia our sommelier for an evening which we absolutely loved. Lidia was most knowledgable and shared this with us. We were entertained and educated about Hungarian wines and vineyards. We learned about different grape varietys, the difference that the storage of the wine has on the flavour. It was the most wonderful evening and lidia was a wonderful host.

This was one of the highlights of our visit to Budapest. Our Sommelier, Atilla, was very knowledgeable and gave a thorough background on the wine industry and methods in Hungary. The one disappointment was the food. This is the description I read: "sample a range of Hungarian dishes from one of the city’s most popular restaurants." We had a ham and cheese platter with some olives and sun-dried tomatoes. Then a small-bite, yummy dessert. There was no range of dishes to sample. There was nothing "Hungarian" that I haven't had before in the US.

Our sommelier, Lidia, was both extremely knowledgeable & had practical experience of Hungarian viniculture. Through her expertise we enjoyed 6 superb Hungarian wines ranging from crisp whites to flavoursome reds, guiding us through how best to enjoy each with complementary charcuterie & cheeses.

A cancellation email was sent to me by the claimant 24 hours before without giving any reason. We will be reimbursed but the process is not satisfactory.

This was an outstanding evening. Our sommelier, Lidia, was knowledgeable and passionate about wine. We learned so much from her expertise as we tasted several different Hungarian wines. The tasting took place at Platz, an eclectic restaurant with a fun vibe. The charcuterie board featured delicious local meats and cheeses. All in all, it was a great evening and we highly recommend. This is one of the tours we will remember most fondly in our European travels. Lidia made all the difference with her attention to detail, interesting stories and engaging manner, not to mention her vast knowledge of wine from around the world.

Henriette was an excellent and very knowledgeable about wine making and all details of wine tasting. I attended with other family members and they enjoyed the session tremendously.

Great Food and Wine Tasting experience in the heart of Budapest ! The wine selection was very good and paired very well with the cured meat and cheese selection. The Sommelier gave us a detailed description / history of the different wines which made the experience even more enjoyable! This experience will give you a good taste of the white, rosé and red Hungarian wines served and the potential of those wines. I really recommend this experience if you would like to discover Hungarian wines, really worth the price in my humble opinion. P.S : The list of the different wines tasted can be provided by the Sommelier at the end of the Wine Tasting experience for those who wish to purchase them !

Henriette was brilliant. Friendly and very knowledgeable. Answered all our questions and made it a fun night. Varied wines and good nibbles

Host was very informative and knows wine; not only Hungarian wine. Location was central but at times noisy. Wine selection was impressive.

If you’re in Budapest and have an interest in wine, this is an experience not to be missed. The tasting was led by Henriett, a Hungarian with a degree in winemaking who has travelled extensively around the world. This allowed us to compare wines and techniques from Hungary and beyond, offering a well-rounded and insightful perspective. Henriett is not only highly knowledgeable but also incredibly charming, making the entire experience truly enjoyable. Highly recommended.
