O podgorie din apropierea României produce vinuri care se impun treptat în lume. Sunt cerute de restaurante de lux
The Tokaj region in Hungary is gaining global recognition for its wines, despite a decline in worldwide wine exports. Production and exports have increased by 8-10% during a global crisis, while overall wine exports fell by 4.7%. Tokaji Aszú, known as the "wine of kings," is made from Furmint grapes affected by noble rot, enhancing its sweetness and acidity. The region, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is also facing challenges from climate change, impacting grape harvests. European countries are the main markets, with North America emerging as a key target for Hungarian wines, particularly in luxury restaurants.
