If so, our wine seminar during the EU Open House Day at the Embassy of Austria with Klaus Wittauer offers the perfect opportunity. Experience the art of wine tasting, the fun of sharpening your senses, and the amusement of exploring the many exquisite types of wine in an exceptional setting.

Klaus will guide you through some of the Austrian wines. Some of them may be already familiar grape varieties and some you may have never heard of before. But one thing they have got in common: they are all delicious and compliment any food. Many of these wines are organically produced, which is not surprising since Austria is an international organic champion.

Austrian wine is immensely popular and a perennial favorite of sommeliers throughout the world. They are known for their wide diversity of styles, aromas, and terroirs. Be sure to reserve a ticket to one of the 2 wine tasting time-slots: 11:00 am or 1:00pm .

Get a taste of Austria at the EU Open House Day on May 9, 2026!

Besides tasting some Austrian wine you can also chat with Embassy staff, sample Austrian delicacies like strudel, (www.little-austria.com) coffee and tea from Julius Meinl (www.juliusmeinl.com/us) and of course Austria's most famous drink Red Bull (www.redbull.com/us-en).
