The Ludwig Museum's new initiative, the Art & Wine Lover's Club, aims to introduce successful international and Hungarian wineries, also the novelties and aspiring talents of the recent gastro revolution in Hungary - while the programmes are inspired by our exhibitions or by the museum's collection pieces and shows.
Date: 19 September 2017, Tuesday, 6.30 - 9.30 p.m.
Guided tour in the temporary exhibition Gilbert & George Scapegoating Pictures for Budapest, followed by wine tasting with St. Donat Winery from Csopak.
On the exhibition you will find more information HERE
Csopak is one of the world-class terroirs of Lake Balaton where the diversity of soils, climate and timeless viticulture create unique wines. Mineral clays, chalk and volcanic soils give different characters. Our aim is to show this diversity through a narrow range of authentic grapes: olaszrizling, furmint and kékfrankos. Therefore we respect old vineyards and save their grape for vineyard and soil selections. Natural yeast, slow winemaking and gentle aging are all key elements to preserve their uniqueness.
