Anyone who bears such a name in Vienna is obliged to give their best. And Fritz Wieninger has been conscientiously fulfilling this mission for many years: from a traditional wine tavern, he has developed a quality-oriented top winery. Wieninger has been processing grapes from both sides of the Danube for several years. With the famous and best sites on Vienna's Nussberg, the dynamic winegrower has excellent grape material at his disposal, and he knows how to translate this into an extensive range of top wines.
In Austria, Wieninger is famous for his barrique-aged Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs from the top "Grand Select" series, while his cassis-spiced Bordeaux blend (Cabernet/Merlot) "Danubis Grand Select" also deserves attention. A particular specialty is the traditional Wiener Gemischter Satz. For this authentic terroir wine, the vines of different varieties are mixed together in the vineyard and contribute their specific character traits. Since the 2013 vintage, it has also been awarded the DAC label.
As a Viennese winery, the export-oriented business has also found acceptance in top gastronomy throughout Austria. Wieninger has long been the clear number one in the metropolis when it comes to quality wine, with 40 percent of production exported to 31 countries on three continents. The share in Viennese gastronomy has also risen sharply in recent years.
In order to make Vienna's top wines even more popular, the winegrower has joined forces with the Christ, Edlmoser, Cobenzl, Mayer am Pfarrplatz and Fuhrgassl-Huber wineries to form the "WienWein" group. With the 2017 vintage, twelve Viennese vineyards were also classified as "Erste Lagen" by the "Traditionsweingüter Österreich" association for the first time, four of which are managed by Weingut Wieninger.
