It is undoubtedly the most demanding and exciting tasting that takes place in Austria: the ÖTW Single Vineyard Summit. From September 8-12, around 500 wines exclusively from ÖTW Erste Lagen and single vineyards will be offered in a tasting, for which trade press, importers, sommeliers and retailers will travel from all over the world.
The grounds of Grafenegg Castle, about 60 km west of Vienna, provide the picturesque setting for this high-quality tasting, which is organized by the Austrian Traditional Wine Estates. Almost 80 winegrowers along the Danube - from the Traisen Valley to Carnuntum - are the initiators of the event, which has been held annually since 2013.
Silent Tasting Format
Individual wine selection, your own tasting rhythm and personal contact with the winemakers: the Silent Tasting format of the ÖTW Single Vineyard Summit offers perfect tasting conditions. Participants can decide for themselves which wines they would like to taste and in which order by noting down the desired sample numbers. In the interests of undisturbed concentration, admission is only granted at the beginning of the pre-booked tasting slots (9 am or 2 pm).
