The major wine region is comprised of Tokaj and the surrounding 26 settlements. Its natural boundaries are Sátor Mountain, Kopasz Mountain, and the Tisza and Bodrog rivers. This area is considered a separate wine region of its own, due to a number of unique features: one being the local climate, which is very conducive to noble rot, and the other being the wet marshlands near the rivers. The vineyards are located on exceptionally colourful volcanic rock formations, at a height of approximately 100-300 metres above sea level.

Places to go

The cake that’s like a drum, yet its name is merely a coincidence

All children think that Dobos cake (dob means drum in Hungarian) is named after the hard caramel glaze that covers the top, as it’s just as circular and just as hard as a drum.
