Amazing achievement: Best red wine in Hungary has been chosen
Bodor Winery’s 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon has been named Hungary’s best red wine at the Winelovers Wine Awards 2023. The best burger in Hungary will also be chosen in September.
Winelovers Wine Awards
Turizmus.com writes that out of the 839 competitors at the blind tasting, only 4 won the Grand Gold medal: three aszĂş and Bence Bodor’s Villány red wine. The aim of the Winelovers Wine Awards is to find the best wines of Central and Eastern Europe and promote them on the international market. The competition attracted wines from 14 countries. The jury of 65 wine experts represented 19 countries. Several of them are holders of the Master of Wine title, and a Mater Sommelier was among them as well. Bodor Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 was the best red wine in the country, according to the jury’s ruling.
The best red wine
The creator of the winning red wine is grateful for scoring 95 points in such an important wine competition. He is glad that his full-bodied Villány red wine received the same prestigious award as the three sweet aszú wines. This great professional recognition is an amazing feedback for Bodor and a useful guide for consumers. Despite the fact that the consumption of red wine is declining worldwide and in Hungary too. The creator, Bence Bodor says:
Although it is indeed fun to drink beer and have cocktails, it is always the same experience, but with wines, every vintage is a unique, unrepeatable adventure. Both in the making and in the tasting.

Hungary’s best burger
Turizmus.com also reported that on the first weekend in September, groups of friends and families will gather to try the best burger in the country. Burger lovers can enjoy a real outdoor picnic and barbecue at the Saft ‘N Burger – National Hamburger Cooking Competition. Once a year on this day, artisan burger lovers meet in Debrecen, on the shores of Lake BĂ©kás. Besides trying all the delicious meals at street food stands, visitors can try the refreshing Hungarian craft beers too. Furthermore, the products of the co-organising family farm, Hortobágy Angus, will also be available for purchase, while the competitions will also provide tasty snacks. To enhance the atmosphere, authentic country and rockabilly music will be playing live.
The competition
The winner of the professional category will be awarded the title of Burger of the Country. The winner will keep the title until next year’s competition, and then it will be passed on to the new winner. There will also be amateur categories for those who like a challenge. There will be individual, team and junior categories. The organisers will provide premium Hortobágy Angus patties for the competition. Here are some photos from last year’s competition:

What kind of burger competition can you possibly have if all the burgers are based on the same meat patty? The meat patty is the most important part of a hamburger. Are Hungarians that ignorant of what a hamburger is?
That’s because in Hungary they are fixated on what I call the McDonald’s model of what a hamburger should be. Rather than focusing on the meat, it focuses on all the toppings you can slather on to hide the porr taste of the meat being used.
