Event Details
An exceptional event organised by IWFS in conjunction with Winekeller and celebrating the wines, food and culture of Austria. Austria is known for its superb quality wines, as well as the warm hospitality and traditions of its people, the relaxed way of life and stunning landscapes.
The 6 day Austrian festival starts in capital city Vienna, then onwards to the spectacular Wachau Valley, Austria’s most celebrated wine region.
Based in Krems for 2 nights, the days will be spent at private tastings and cellar visits at some of Austria’s most respected estates, including Domäne Wachau, Weingut Prager, Schloss Gobelsburg and Nikolaihof. There will be a gala five-course dinner with paired wines at two-Michelin-starred Landhaus Bacher.
Next en route is Burgenland, Austria’s warmest wine region and home to some of the country’s finest red wines, particularly Blaufränkisch. We will take a leisurely wine-focused boat trip on Lake Neusiedl and spend 2 nights in the historic wine town of Rust.
The final day explores Mittelburgenland with a visit to K+K Kirnbauer. The tour concludes with a four-course dinner and local wines at Freistein in Rust.
