Join The Spectator’s drinks editor Jonathan Ray and classical music columnist Richard Bratby for a very special trip to Hungary, combining the grand capital Budapest, with the celebrated vineyards of Tokaji. We shall spend three days in Budapest, taking in the famous Széchenyi baths and a night at the Hungarian State Opera, as well as a private cruise on the Danube and dinner at the fabled Gundel restaurant in Budapest City Park. Heading across the Great Hungarian Plain to the wine regions of Eger and Tokaji, we shall sample the famous dessert wine, Tokaji Aszú, which Louis XIV famously called the “Wine of Kings, King of Wines”. We will meet winemakers at two of the finest producers of Tokaji, and stay at the historic Degenfeld Castle Hotel.
