Just a quick plug for the upcoming “Bitch, Moan and Wine” tasting, which will take place next Friday night. Unlike some previous BMW events, where the focus on … up and coming producers led to some grumbling, this time Budapest’s English-friendly regular wine event is featuring the Sauska Pinceszét, probably the Hungarian winemaker of the moment. Of course, this being Hungary, there will still be plenty of bitching, moaning and whining, though this time only from the people who forgot to reserve a space.

My favorite is Coca Cola 2009.
I don’t care for wine, but I like grapes. Why don’t you grape people make some decent seedless grapes instead of all that wine.
Godot, farmers in Hungary aren’t interested in what you like. They’ll just make what they want.
