Wines were great but there was very little explanation for the wines and food pairings, we were left to drink and eat at our own leisure! Although the wines were explained, this is not suitable for first timers/ if you are seeking a more guided experience. We had to reschedule at very late notice and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful and understanding in accommodating us onto another time slot! The sommelier was also very knowledgeable and friendly!

This was the best wine tasting we've ever done. It was billed as 8 wines in 2 hours, but turned into 10 wines in 2 ½ hours, not that we wanted to leave. Karoly was knowledgeable and generous with his pours, and the accompanying cheeses (we don't eat sausages) were delicious. We went from one excellent wine to another and learned so much on the way. And the people we shared the table with were so friendly, it seemed like a party with friends we'd just met. I can't recommend this place highly enough.

Our sommelier was full of knowledge and happy to answer our numerous questions. We were not aware of how much wine Hungary produced. The wines were varied and enjoyable. The atmosphere was amazing. Don’t miss this experience

John is fun, genuine, and he knows his wines! It was professional, and we also had time to interact, talk to eachother and just enjoy the food and drink the wine.
