The story

Uzhhorod Beaujolais Festival in Uzhhorod

The Uzhhorod Beaujolais festival, known locally as Zakarpatske Bozhole, is a mid-November young-wine and honey celebration in Uzhhorod, Ukraine's westernmost regional capital, held around the historic Shpykhlir wine cellar in a wine-growing region shaped by its Hungarian and Central European heritage.

Uzhhorod sits at the western edge of Ukraine in Transcarpathia, a region whose wine culture reflects centuries of Hungarian, Austrian, and Central European influence alongside Ukrainian tradition, and the city has built a modern festival calendar around this heritage.
