@polishwineguide @LizGabayMW @FelicityCarter @timatkin Right. :( The Jewish merchants started to sell wood and saltpetre in that time, there was no ‘Greek merchants’ in the region anymore, and the producers of Tokaj blamed others for their own failure. (This attitude continues today.) :(

@LizGabayMW @FelicityCarter @timatkin Wine and food fashion in Poland shifted decisively for French in the 1760s under King Stanislaus Poniatowski. Poland became a major market for Champagne. Casanova describes a party where 1000 bottles were sabred (a splinter hit him in the eye)

@polishwineguide @LizGabayMW @FelicityCarter @timatkin F.e.: Rozbiory Polski, the “double duty” between the ‘Habsburg Galicia and the Habsburg Hungary’ from 1772, the end of the Russian wine buying committee (1798), the Napoleon wars, the November Uprising (1830-31) and the Kraków uprising (1846)...

@timatkin @FelicityCarter You mean in the tsarist court? There was a Russian Wine Buying Committee in Tokaj between 1733-1798, but from 1770 they bought less and less wine.

@FelicityCarter @timatkin I think it was a cultural question that time. The Russian nobilitites talked French to each other, the French language and culture was fashionalble in that time all over Eastern Europe. So yes. :)

Tegnap a Podrum Somogyinál jártam, ahol Somogyi Sándor bánáti borásszal-művésszel-mérnökkel beszélgettünk hosszasan. Ennek eredményét hamarosan olvashatjátok a Pécsi Borozó tavaszi számában, de addig is melegen... facebook.com/10000074257575…
