II Upland Market Town - II-3 House from Hejce

11-3 stands a huge press surrounded by original and reconstructed wooden vats. There are other wine making tools such as a wine pump and pruning knives. The cellar is lined with Gönc barrels. • Wine-bin with glasses A wine-bin stands on the table. The partitioned chest with a lid was used for transporting valuable wine and has several peculiar shortnecked, prismatic glasses. These glasses could be painted or engraved as well. During the 18th century such glasses were not kept in the chests but were used as decorative pieces. From the end of the 19th century wine bottles had become standardised. In the 20th century the same liquid measure came to be used by wine cellars in response to the demands of foreign market. At this time, parallel to the decreasing of storing place in wine-bins the narrow bottles, trade marks and characteristic of TokajHegyalja emerged.
