Wine, Forest Flavours and Autumn Stories
From 20 to 22 November 2026, the deeper flavours of autumn take centre stage at Imola Hotel Platán.
Game inspired gastronomy, wines from Eger, seasonal forest ingredients, themed sauna experiences and a leisurely Sunday brunch come together for a special weekend in Eger.
Three days in which inspiration from nature accompanies every experience, from the glass to the plate.
In November, the forest reveals an entirely different character. Deeper aromas, distinctive seasonal ingredients, game, mushrooms, root vegetables and herbs create a world of flavours that pairs naturally with the wines of the Eger wine region.
The Flavours of the Forest Gourmet Wine Weekend explores this connection through culinary programmes, tastings and relaxing wellness experiences.
A special November escape for those who enjoy discovering stories in a glass of wine, a carefully prepared dish and the small details of nature.
Friday: A First Taste of the Forest
The weekend begins with a distinctive Hungarian welcome. A glass of pálinka awaits guests at reception, setting the tone for the culinary experiences ahead.
Friday Evening: Dinner with an Eger Winemaker VIII
The highlight of Friday evening brings together the wines of Stumpf Winery and a collaborative menu created by Kreácsik Ádám and Darab Ádám at Borág Restaurant.
Game, wild mushrooms, root vegetables, herbs, nuts, fermented elements and subtle smoky notes shape the forest inspired dishes, while carefully selected Eger wines reveal a new perspective alongside each course.
Non resident guests are also welcome to attend the wine dinner. Places are limited, therefore advance booking is required.
