About
Visiting Hungarian wineries is a special experience. Winemakers take the time to personally welcome you at their tables (as opposed to pouring wine from behind a bar), pouring generous glasses of wine as they reveal the details of their wines, terroirs, and personal histories. At our Tasting Table we hope to recreate this quintessential Hungarian wine experience in the city. Come sit at our table and discover delicious Hungarian wines, and the stories behind them. During the day guests can pop in to buy wine (and drink glasses and flights along with cheese and charcuterie boards), under the guidance of our sommelier. We place a strong focus on educating our guests about Hungarian and Central European wine and food culture, and the evenings are reserved for our wine tasting classes, events, and private functions. Our wine is always paired with lots of insight into Hungarian winemaking. Located in the atmospheric cellar of a 19th-century palace, the Tasting Table is a hybrid wine shop / tasting room / event space / education center. As a shop, our focus is on Central European grape varietals and specialties. We have nearly 100 unique wines for sale, many of which are not widely available elsewhere. We buy our wine straight from the winemakers, from good people who make good wine, who we know and trust. Every wine we offer has a reason to be here-whether it is simply an outstanding wine or comes from a special terroir, or it tells an important story about Hungarian winemaking. Our goal is to introduce the special wines which are not always easy to find.

Tasting Table is a "must" for wine geeks whilst being in Budapest. A couple of steep stairs leads you down to a nicely restored cellar, where owner Tomás and his team are waiting to give you a very educational and interesting tour through Hungary's vineyards. Sommelier Sebastián, born in Colombia, knows everything about the wines of his ancestors country Hungary and is happy to surprise you with discoveries from indigenous grape varieties you might have real problems to pronounce correctly... Everything is accompanied by boards of salami, kolbasz, local cheese or Mangalica ham. They offer group tastings at 15.00 and 18.00, but guests a free to pass by just for one or two glasses of good wine as well - everything 100 percent Hungaricum!

Really enjoyed the afternoon tasting with charcuterie board. Had 5 wines that were good quality and a larger than usual portion for a tasting. Charcuterie was the perfect afternoon snack to keep us going until dinner. Host was charming and our fellow guests made for a great afternoon. It was on the pricier side but felt worth it for a treat.

Thoroughly enjoyed an extensive education and delicious introduction to Hungarian wine. Tomas was incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and enthusiastic. Tasting included sparkling wine, three different dry white wines, three red wines, and a dessert wine. Also included a sampling of excellent local meats and cheeses. All the wines were available for purchase afterward at affordable prices. Highly recommended as a great way to spend an evening!!

What a fun evening. So much wine!
We sampled 9 wines from all over Hungary. A great space that held a large number of people. We were at a table with ten others but it still felt like you had your own group.
A charcuterie board and some bread to help you not get too drunk.
It was a great start to our Hungarian trip.

Men and mye girlfriend are above avarage interested in wine, food and culture. Booked this without high levels of expectation, but we got an amazing evening. The sommelieres are very skilled and have a lot of knowledge! I missed some more information for the cheese and meat platter regarding which wine for which food, but all in all a highly recommended thing to do when you are in the area!!

A great place to find out about the history of wine in Hungary and to sample some fantastic wines whilst doing so. The staff were very friendly and had a great all round knowledge of both Hungarian and other countries wines. The cheese board was a great accompaniment with the wine tasting and they paired the wines to match the flavours nicely. Would certainly go back and visit again. If using GPS to find the place keep your eye at ground level when in the vicinity as the property is below ground level and the sign for the place is difficult to spot.

Hi, I am visiting Budapest with a friend in two weeks. We are both vegan and was wondering if there were vegan options/vegan cheeses available to pair with the wine. And if not, is there just an option to wine taste without food? Thank you!

As long as you book in advance, we'd be happy to prepare some vegan food as a substitute! Thanks!
