Try something new, try Hungarian wines!

Though the wine in South Korea consumption has dropped in the last two years, the country is still considered to be a developing wine market. As there are more and more sophisticated wine connoisseurs, the trend of drinking less, but better helps wines from less known countries, like Hungary. For the adventurous Korean wine drinkers wines made of indigenous Hungarian grapes can be great alternatives to the market dominating Chilean, New Zealand, Italian and French wines.

Rizling is not only Rhine Riesling in Hungary, we have Olaszrizling as well, a completely different grape – here by Homola from Balaton

Did you know that there is a thing called “Korean wine”?

Though there are evidences of winemaking in Korea from the Middle Ages, these earlier mentions refer to Christian missionaries. The first authentic Korean wine made of domestically grown grapes was created in 1969 in Daejeon – it was called Sunry Port Wine.
Nowadays there are about 150 South Korean wineries.

Venue: Daejeon Convention Center (DCC) Exhibition Halls 1 and 2, Yuseong District, South Korea
