Written by a British wine writer with many years’ experience of Hungary and Tokaj in particular, it is a very informative but still compact book. Tokaj has seen many dramatic changes since 1989, mostly for the better, so any older text is hopelessly outdated. The book contains chapters on the region, on the history, on wine production and on the growers with a detailed descriptions of the houses and their wines. But it also has sections for the traveller: hotels – and restaurants, sites and practical information. We wish we had had it when we planned our first wine tour in the region some years ago! The most informative book in English on Tokaj that we have seen, a must for he who plans a trip there or who simply wants to discover the Tokaj wines.
