About This Experience

Discover Vienna's unique wine culture at a Heuriger, traditional wine taverns found in the vineyard-covered hills surrounding the city. These cozy establishments serve only their own new wine ('Heuriger' means 'this year's'). The tradition dates to 1784 when Emperor Joseph II decreed that winemakers could sell their own wine directly. Today, you'll sit in rustic gardens or wood-paneled rooms, sampling Grüner Veltliner while enjoying traditional Austrian cold cuts, cheeses, and spreads.

Pro Tip

Grinzing and Neustift am Walde have the best Heurigen; look for a pine branch at the door
