The Danube, with its various names, flows through ten different countries and four capital cities before reaching the Black Sea. It’s a river that’s seen plenty of wars and has had a tumultuous history. This means that many of its wine regions aren’t that well known, despite centuries of grape growing. This episode follows the Danube from its starting point in Germany, through Austria, Slovakia, and Hungary, across Croatia and Serbia, and into Romania, Moldova, Bulgaria, and Ukraine where the Black Sea moderates the otherwise warm continental climate around the river. A rare chance to explore the wines of Central and Eastern Europe.
