Private Premium Wine Day: 2000 Years of Austrian Wine in Wachau

This is not a standard wine trip — it is 2,000 years of Austrian wine in one day, told in four chapters: Romans, monks, emperors and today's young vintners. We begin at Klosterneuburg Abbey, Austria's oldest wine estate, where monks have made wine for over 900 years: a tasting in the cellars beneath the monastery, and the Treasury with the Archducal Hat — Austria's crown. Then a hand-picked boutique cellar, chosen for your date: in Kamptal or Kremstal, valleys the crowds have not found yet — or, when its doors are open, the legendary Nikolaihof, Austria's oldest winery on Roman foundations. The finale belongs to the Wachau: a family winery among the UNESCO river terraces, on slopes where Roman legions first planted vines, and a stroll through postcard-perfect Dürnstein. Lunch at a traditional heuriger, or a classic Wachau tavern when the heurigers rest (own expense). A dedicated duo — Vlad driving, Jenny guiding — keeps every tasting unhurried. History through the glass.
