My daughter and I spent a wonderful afternoon at a wine tasting in the company of Bianca who talked us through some superb Hungarian wines. We were provided with some beautiful Hungarian cheese and sausage to accompany the wine selection. My daughter said she is now inspired to see more of Hungary and hopes to visit the countryside soon. Although I am a wine lover it was my first time at a wine tasting session. It was such a positive experience, it certainly won't be my last.

I have done my fair share of wine tastings, but this one felt like the culmination of someone’s life work. The sum of their learning and experience being shared with storytelling flair, and a pride and passion in the wines they are sharing and presenting. I knew nothing about Hungarian wines, so was keen to start our holiday by trying some, I was blown away by what I learned at Wine the Gap in Budapest. The space itself has character and a relaxing place to sit and enjoy a wine and and chat. Miki, a wine journalist, storyteller, and walking encyclopaedia and atlas of Hungarian terroir isn’t here to just pour wine, he grounds it and contextualises it - not delivering a rote learned tasting notes - but knows his stuff and engages you by being engaging. You get information about geology, climate, wine history, winemaker knowledge - most of whom he knows personally and then, somewhere in the middle of the a sentence and a story, he casually pours something exceptional and on the evening rolls. You’ll also get some delicious snacks to try. We started bright and aromatic with Csereszegi Fűszeres from Gál - you’re getting elderflower, citrus peel and soft spice. A grape that feels li

Wine The Gap on Tompa Street is one of those special places in Budapest where you instantly feel at home. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, making it a perfect spot to relax and spend quality time with friends. We often hang out there because it has a warm, home-like environment that makes conversations flow naturally and allows you to truly unwind. Their wines are excellent, with a selection that never disappoints, whether you are trying something new or enjoying a favorite. In winter, it becomes one of the best places in the area to enjoy mulled wine — warm, delicious, and exactly what you need on a cold evening. If you are looking for a comfortable, friendly wine bar with great drinks and a relaxed vibe, Wine The Gap is definitely a place to visit.

Mickey's wine tasting was an absolute highlight of our Budapest trip. His passion for Hungarian wine is infectious, and his deep knowledge is evident in every sip. We spent a fascinating three hours exploring seven different wines, each paired with delicious bites. Mickey's ability to make complex wine information accessible and enjoyable is truly impressive. We were so captivated by his expertise that the time flew by. Our experience culminated in the purchase of a special dessert wine that we can't wait to savor at home. If you're looking to appreciate the nuances of Hungarian wine, this tasting is a must-do!
