Definitely recommend wine tasting - We all thoroughly enjoyed this wine tasting. Carlos, our sommelier, was very knowledgeable and we were all interested in the various wine regions in Hungary. The two whites were served together, followed by two reds, followed by the white dessert wine - in which were was plenty of time to drink and eat the cheese/ charcuterie board (without feeling rushed). We definitely recommend doing this if you have a spare 1-2 hours in Budapest.

Excellent value for money - This was the best wine tasting I have been to Carlos was very informative and interesting. The wines we tasted were all very different and were unusually larger portions to the usual 20 ml sips you are given. The cheeses and meats were on individual boards and carefully selected to match each wine. Excellent couple of hours!

Deluxe Wine Tasting Lives up to its Name! - We were a group of four for the Deluxe wine tasting. (Two of us had done the Essentials wine tasting on our first visit to Budapest in 2021.) We had a private room on the first floor (European) of the Taste Hungary tasting room and tasted eight top-flight Hungarian wines ranging from whiles to rose to reds to 20-year-old Tokai. Our sommelier provided excellent tasting notes and lots of interesting information about Hungary and its wine cultivation. The cheese, charcuterie, and bites that accompanied the wines were also excellent. Highly recommend doing at least one of Taste Hungary's wine tastings! We'll definitely be back next time we visit Budapest. (And we even ordered some of the wines we tasted from their shop in the United States after we returned home!)

Ok - The host obviously knows his wines. The small amount of cheese and meat was very tasty. Remember this is a taster so only a meagre amount of wine!
