It was a distinct pleasure and honour to attend the WSWA Judges Dinner in Las Vegas. Organised on April 30 by our partner, the SOMM Journal Magazine with an impressive list of attendees from the biggest hotel chains restaurants’ wine buyers and sommeliers, the event offered us the possibility to introduce the dry Furmint and the Tokaji Aszú.
MÁD Furmint, the New Taste of the World and the 6 Puttonyos Tokaji Aszú, the elixir of Hungary from the Patricius Winery were paired and offered for tasting to the esteemed guests.
Our special thanks to Mon Ami Gabi Restaurant and Executive Chef Vincent Poussel for their professionalism in creating one of the best wine pairing menu we have ever experienced.
With this event we have continued the series of successful presentations aiming to promote the Hungarian wines throughout the U.S. and Canada.
