WINE DISTRICTS, WINE REGIONS, VINEYARDS – THE CONSTRUCTION AND REPRESENTATION OF BORDERS IN THE HUNGARIAN WINE CULTURE

Summary/Abstract: The article attempts to give an overview of how the different types of borders in Hungarian vine and wine culture can be manifested. In addition to the borders separating the different wine regions, there can also be borders within the individual vine-growing areas. The central purpose of the delimitation of a wine area is to establish a distinctive identity for the wines produced within it, and provide a means whereby the provenance of those wines can be guaranteed. The question and problem of drawing, strengthening and representing the borders can certainly throw light on new aspects of the grape and wine culture that can be regarded as related to the interests of vine-growing communities and to conflicts between them.
