At the end of March 2022, the first Hungarian Wine Summit will be held in Budapest. The aim of the event is to promote Hungarian wines and introduce the local wine regions to a wider international audience.
Hungarian wine takes the spotlight at the festival
The Agricultural Marketing Centre has created the Hungarian Wine Summit which will be organised for the first time in 2022, writes sokszinuvidek.24.hu.
The aim of the Hungarian Wine Summit is to introduce local wines and wine regions to the world.
The Hungarian Wine Summit is planned to be an entry-based event. In this way, the diversity and quality of Hungarian wines can reach as many people as possible. This event also helps to connect Hungarian winemakers with foreign customers. As a result, business relations will be established and domestic wine exports may increase.
Nearly 100 international wine experts, influencers, purchasers, specialist journalists and Master of Wine will attend the event.
Visitors are expected to come from all over Europe. From 20th March, guests can take part in tastings, wine dinners and wine region tours. The program welcomes the domestic and international audiences at the SIRHA Budapest International Food and HoReCa Trade Fair. This will be held at Hungexpo in Budapest between 22-24 March.
“At the trade fair, ninety Hungarian winemakers will have the opportunity to introduce themselves in the framework of masterclasses and walk-around tastings. In addition, the professional audience will be acquainted with Hungarian wines, including the famous Tokaj, as well as various local grape varieties and winemaking techniques presented by Hungarian wine exports”, the announcement says.
“Help the ones who deserve it”
The Agricultural Marketing Centre (AMC)’s motto is “help the ones who deserve it”. Based on this belief, the organisers carefully selected the wineries that will participate in the event.
What matters is not the size of the winery, but the quality of its offerings.
AMC gives a chance to everyone who can demonstrate significant work, stamina and genuine passion for the trade, writes hungarianwines.eu. AMC is responsible for raising awareness of local winemaking as well as promoting Hungarian wine export. There is already a large number of guests who have pre-registered for the event, coming from all over Europe, from Lithuania to the United Kingdom.
The event will showcase the most important local grape varieties, wine types and wine regions.
