Discover the Eger wine region this summer! – PHOTOS
Change language:
The Eger summer has begun, discover the wine region as soon as possible. To get you started, pick up a few bottles of refreshing Eger Csillag or fruity rosé to take with you to the beach or a picnic in the park. But if your appetite has been whetted and want to take things to the next level, you should visit the wine region in person. Here are five tips for this summer.
How to get started?
To get in the mood for summer, chill a bottle of fresh Eger Csillag or other light white wine, Eger rosé or even a bottle of bubbly Eger wine. To get away from the often monotonous rhythm of everyday life, get a glass and take a seat on the balcony or under a tree, or even better, have a picnic! You don’t need much, just a salad, a sandwich and maybe a few ice cubes and you’re ready for a night out.
Secret tip
It is now a widely discredited myth that red wines should be consumed at room temperature. It would be wrong to do so in summer, and equally wrong in winter in well-heated homes. This summer, let’s experiment with something new and chill a classic Eger Bikavér with a focus on fruity aromas! It’s important that the bottle spends enough time in the fridge so that when you pour it into your glass dew drops form on it as it usually happens with a good spritzer.
Come and discover the Eger wineries
The most memorable wine tastings usually take place at the wineries. The eleven wineries making up the Eger Wine Workshop are ready to welcome guests again this summer. Several wineries are open to the public during regular hours, others require advance booking. However, if what you’re looking for is a more serious guided tasting, it is always worth making an appointment before you go. You can also find information about the wineries of the Eger Wine Workshop on the Egri Bor Most website, Facebook or Instagram account.
