Since the time of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, St. Martin’s Day celebrations have been associated with the wine tradition. In the beginning of November, each year the first wines of this year’s harvest are opened every year, not only in this country, but also in the Czech Republic and Austria. According to the tradition, the wine from the year’s harvest is blessed by a church dignitary.
