The exhibition presents grape-growing and wine-production in the Carpathian Basin, including Hungary with regard to the nearing EU-joining, the outstanding quality, the reputation and the chronological and regional levels of the historical development, its phase differences, under fulfillment and the nature of the European interconnection at the same time. The aim of the exhibition is to show the place of the Hungarian wine-culture in Europe divided into periods. It does not show a usual historical exhibition but it also gives us an overall picture of how important grape and wine for the folks living in the Carpathian Basin were from the ancient world to now.

Why was wine produced and why were the grape and wine gods honored in the body of beliefs and religion of these people. What kind of goods and cost of living did grape and wine mean then and what do they mean now, in weekdays and in holidays. In spite of the huge topic this permanent exhibition tries to present the wine-grower, wine-producing communities, the history of wine-districts, and the tendencies and regularities of the latest era (since 1990) .

Because of its topic and the great social expectations the exhibition wishes to satisfy the visitors' interest from school children to groups of foreign experts.
