Highly recommended! I wanted to experience a wine tasting, visiting Eger and all... They were super helpful and kind to organise one only for me (went alone), especially it being off-season! On the day their "taster person" got ill, they phoned me to let me know and offered the tour lead by the winery director himself! It goes without saying it was amazing! Máté was super knowledgeable not just in regards to the wine their produce, but also the ins and outs of anything related, answering my often (I assume) silly questions, while also picking the next wine based on what I thought the previous ones were! We topped the whole thing up with a behind the scenes tour to visit the bottling line and one of the rooms full of barrels.
I had an amazing time! I'll definitely be back next time I'm around, if for nothing else to pick up a few bottles!
Oh, and they have their base of operation carved into a mountain! Take...
Read moreMy friend from London and I (based in Budapest) had great time at Bolyki winery, though we had a very stressful start! On the way to Bolyki, google map guided us to a narrow unpaved road. Due to the rain, our car got stucked in the mud. So unless you have a 4x4, don't drive in from Egri út side, drive from Kistályai út. Big big thanks to Csaba from the winery, his excellent hospitality made us feel comfortable, cozy and relaxed, so we could enjoy the delish wine and food for the rest of the day! He and the owner of the winery also offered help to get our car out of the mud while still raining, so my friend could catch the flight back and end our weekend trip perfectly. As a foreigner, I couldn't thank more for their warm-heart and kindness. The winery itself is a hidden gem. Its unique scenery is very much suitable for wedding party or company event. I will recommend all my friends to pay a visit...
Read moreWent for a tasting & tour, and contacted the place the day before to ensure that happens. Was told that places closes at 4pm so arrived shortly after 2.30pm hoping to experience it, but was immediately "greated" with that we can only do it at the bar, so immediately "the experience" wasn't as nice as the person who welcomed us wasn't in the mood or just was very "short". Anyhow we were allowed to walk the vineyard ourselves which was truly superb so place deserves 5/5, interiors too, wine bottle designs as well 5/5, wines themselves 4/5 as were just OK (except brut which was 5/5), customer service 3/5 - done to be done, so overall has to be 4/5. Would I do it again, maybe, but there's too many vineyards around to take another chance... Work to be done folks! Leaving 4 as you have the...
