My wife’s friend’s friend Bernadette declared this Hungarian “Champagne” to be her favorite. I’m inclined not to argue with her so I drank it – a little skeptically since I am a little bit of a wine snob – and I liked the Hungaria. I liked it a lot. I like it more now that I know the producer is Torley Pezsgopinceszet Kft - whatever that means – because it makes me giggle and fits in with my natural propensity to pursue a high level of foolishness in life.
I like the fact that is says “HUNGARIA” on the neck, just in case you forgot where it came from. Hungaria never tasted so good. Nice mousse, small bubbles and crisp enough to keep me drinking it. Inexpensive enough to keep my buying it. I can safely say that if I was stuck on Gilligan’s Island with only one wine from Hungary to drink this would be it.
Köszönet Bernadette és John.

SZIVESEN. I like how you are inclined not to argue with me- very smart and I like that I can in some small way contribute towards your high degree of foolishness, but I thought by plying your wife and you with booze (and you additionally with year old halloween candy) that I could move up a notch to “friend” and not just friend’s friend!
Wow- tough crowd. What does it take??

I just thought that wife’s friend’s friend read better than my new BFF – it’s all about writing for me. “Never let the facts get in the way of a good story” Mark Twain

They let us “do our own thing” at lunch – some eat, I blog

I think you eat, drink and blog – what you drink is anyone’s guess … but it might be from Hungary!
