Hungary has a rich wine-making history. It is best-known for its sweet dessert wines made on the banks of the Tisza River in the Tokaji region. These wines are mostly made from the Furmint grape.
Hungary also produces crisp white wines and bold red wines from indigenous grape varieties such as Kékfrankos and Olaszrizling. The country's unique soil and climate conditions contribute to the distinct flavors of its wines, which are known for their quality but remain relatively unknown on the international stage.
