What To Expect
Since time immemorial, around 700 hectares of wine have been cultivated within Vienna's urban area. The roots of viticulture here go as far back as the Romans, who populated the city two thousand years ago. But what exactly is left of the former empire in Vienna today and how is that related to Viennese wine? Get to the bottom of these questions in the truest sense of the word with a guided wine tasting in the city's deepest and non-public wine cellar. A professional wine expert will lead you into the cellar to taste three different wines. The wines range from classic Viennese wines to other Austrian wines, which will, of course, be paired with a small snack from the in-house, family-owned delicatessen.

5.00The wine tasting at Haas and Haas shop in Vienna was excellent. Cornelius our tasting guide was very good. The group was 11 people and lasted about 1 hour. The visit started by Cornelius taking the group down to the cellars under the shop for a look around and gave us a short history. The tasting was at a long table in part of the cellar. The cellars were empty apart from the wine tasting table. We tasted 3 Austrian wines, two whites and a red. All were very good and different. We were also given a small platter of meat, cheese, bread and dip to try with the wines. We have been on several wine tastings around Europe and the amount of wine given was about right for a good tasting. The group had first timers and more experienced wine tasters and Cornelius made sure all were included. He talked about the wines and the history of Austrian wine making and the grapes and what he saw in each wine so lots of information. The only downside was 3 Americans talking loudly all the time to each other while Cornelius was explaining things to the group. This was a good well-paced introduction to Austrian wines. Cornelius was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable and made this a very good experience. If you want to try Austrian wines with a good guide then I would recommend you book this experience.
Great wine tasting experience

5.00I visited on Wednesday the 12th. I didn't catch the name of our guide, I apologize, but he did an excellent job. I enjoy alcohol only occasionally, so I am not overly experienced with wine, but nevertheless I felt very welcome and at ease (helped too by the company of a nice and more knowledgeable English couple who were in my group--shoutout to them as well). It was interesting to learn about some of the many, many details and history as well; definitely something for further reading. And, I appreciate being accommodating with English. Danke schön!
One tasting with history

4.00Tour of multilevel cellars under wine shop. Explanation of historical place and use. Small plate of cheeses, salami, bread and spicy apricot jam to accompany the wines. Tasting of three wines from Vienna area - two white and one red. Displays on the wall to show different categories of wines in Austria were very helpful. Our guide and server was very informative and humorous. The entire experience was fairly short but covered enough information to give us an appreciation for Austrian wines. Recommend the tasting.
Educational and Fun
