Wine: a real taste

The region is famous for its wines. Perhaps in local markets you can buy every kind of Hungarian wines, but it is also possibly to get very good home-made wine directly from its producents. They can pour your own bottle as well as give you another one, for example 2-l plastic bottle for drinks. Usually there is a possibility of tasting wine in the place where it is stored. I don't know if all these things are legal, but what a special taste they have! It is not a complicated matter to find a wine producent, e.g. s/he may have bottles with wine standing on a small table in the road in the front of house.

Prices: about a half of that you have to pay for cheap wine in market.

 I found Balatonfured much more relaxed than Siofok. Friends told me that it's always like this except for the wine festival in August.
