Wine tours and tastings in Styria

Discover wines and their aromas

If you like wine, you will love the wine tours and tastings offered by the Styrian winemakers. Sample your way through wines like Morillon, Welschriesling or Traminer and enjoy local snacks and fascinating facts about winemaking.

Following a pre-determined order, different wines are tasted from floral to elegant as well as fruity to tart. You will quickly get to know and understand the winegrower's technical terms, also called wine language. A consistent ritual is followed during the tasting process. For example, the Welschriesling suddenly unfolds a fresh pineapple-citrus aroma in the nose and presents its fruity-young charm. An extraordinary olfactory experience is guaranteed.

The wine country of Styria

‘The winegrowers of Styria not only stand for independent steep slope wines, but also for courageous rethinking. They have used the last 30 years to conquer the whole of Austria with a new style of wine. Now a new generation of winegrowers is paving the way for their region, once known as the innovation centre of European viticulture, to regain an internationally respected profile.’ David Schildknecht, wine critic
