Wine list for every palate

Gléda is a fairly new restaurant in the hilly Buda side of the Hungarian capital, yet with its style it recalls the era of the early 20th century. The team led by János Deli has made Gléda a popular place of the locals, and part of the success is definitely due to the great wine selection they offer. They also offer the so called Wine of the House in each category, and unlike in case of many other restaurants, the Wine of the House is not a mediocre wine bought in bulk, but great, high quality wines – like the Sparkling Wine of the House, which is Béres Tokaji Méthode Traditionnelle Brut, a stunning sparkling made of 100% Hárslevelű. The dry and sweet Wines of the House are also provided by Béres Vineyards in Erdőbénye, Tokaj

Wine list for every palate

“I am your host and I would not feel like a man if I could not make the world a better place and if I could not make your day a better day.” Isn’t it beautiful? It is a quotation from the philosophy of János Deli, co-owner of Gléda. Wine is an important part of this philosophy therefore the team constantly visits the Hungarian vineyards to establish personal relationship with the winemakers and to have a better knowledge of the wines. The wine list is not very long, but quite complex, it contains some Champagnes (Bollinger, Laurent-Perrier, Ayala), some big names like the Italian Gaja, and there are some Chablis wines, some Sancerre – a whole WSET course can be conducted. The main focus is on Hungarian wines, just to mention a few: the unique Rózsakő variety from Borbély Family Winery (Badacsony), Tornai Aranyhegy Juhfark (Somló) and Babarczi Merlot (Pannonhalma).
