Wines and wine areas near Vienna
Names to look for on a tour itinerary or a wine list:
- Heuriger
- A Viennese wine tavern in the vineyards that pours its own new wine.
- Grüner veltliner
- Austria's signature white grape: peppery, fresh and widely poured in Vienna.
- Wachau
- The terraced Danube valley west of Vienna, known for Riesling and Grüner Veltliner.
How to pick a good wine tour
- Count the wineries: three tastings in a day is comfortable; five turns into a rush.
- Check whether lunch is included. A long tasting on an empty stomach is the most common complaint.
- Small-group and private tours can change the route; big coach tours keep to a fixed schedule.
- Harvest season brings the most activity at wineries but also the busiest roads and cellar doors.
