What do Stanley Tucci and St. Martin’s Day have in common?

11 November. Stanley Tucci was born on this day and turns 66 this year. It is also St. Martin’s Day in Hungary, and we share a little story with him.

A few years ago, one of the world’s best-known food lovers cooked in an Instagram video, and on his kitchen counter stood a bottle of Thummerer Egri Bikavér Superior. We always remember it fondly: good food deserves good wine, and Tucci knows it too. 🍷

The local news site Egerhírek also reported on it (in Hungarian): Stanley Tucci cooked in the company of a bottle of Thummerer Egri Bikavér Superior.
