Upper Hungary Wine & Vineyard Tour at Préselő

This past weekend, we embarked on a wine tasting tour at a beautiful vineyard and couldn't have been more impressed! The host's warm welcome put us at ease immediately, and the setting – a stunning garden nestled by a 300-year-old renovated guesthouse – was simply idyllic. The tasting itself was a delightful journey. We started with a refreshing sparkling wine, and the host expertly curated the following selections based on our preferences. We enjoyed a range of dry, semi-dry, and sweet wines, each with its own unique character. After a long car ride, hunger pangs started to hit during the tasting. Thankfully, the ever-attentive host overheard our grumbles and surprised us with a delectable spread of cold cuts, cheeses, local vegetables, and toasted bread. It was pure bliss! We fell in love with a couple of the wines and couldn't resist leaving with a box to enjoy at home. The entire experience was fantastic, and we can't wait to bring our friends back for a taste of this hidden gem. A truly memorable day!

We were unexperienced with wine tastings, and yet we were able to fully enjoy the different tastes and wines of the Tokaj region. The atmosphere was very relaxing and we felt comfortable all the way through. It is possible to taste inside the house, which would have been cooler, or outside underneath an umbrella. At the end, we could also visit the cellar and see how the wines at Préselö are stored and how the rocks underneath the winery look like. All in all, a very pleasant experience that we can only recommend.
