Neckenmarkt: Burgenland Wine Tour & Blaufränkisch Tasting｜Austria

Right from the start, guests are immersed in the fascinating world of Central Burgenland: they learn about the exciting history of the region, the diversity of the soils and the special climate that shapes Austria's finest red wines. In the wine museum, they experience the development of the craft in a vivid way before devoting themselves to the basics of tasting in a sensory introduction. Colors, scents, and aromas are discovered together, and the language of wine comes to life.
After a delightful break—with a choice of lunch or a hearty snack—the journey continues out into nature. During a guided tour of the vineyards, participants not only enjoy views of the most famous red wine vineyards, but also discover a very special place: the picturesque Donatus Chapel, which sits enthroned in the middle of the vineyards and is considered one of the most beautiful places in Burgenland. Here, guests enjoy a unique panorama that shows the wine landscape in all its beauty – a moment to pause and marvel.
Afterwards, the tour delves deeper into the practical aspects. An intensive tasting training session brings the differences between grape varieties, locations, and styles of vinification to life. Afterwards, the doors of the winery open: young wines and barrel samples await in the production area and barrique cellar, making the fascination of Blaufränkisch tangible. The crowning finale is a tasting of the current range, accompanied by a personal exchange with the winemaker – authentic, inspiring, and full of enjoyment.
