Wine Tasting: Rust's Wine Treasures
Freitag, 25. April 2025 – Sonntag, 27. April: Meist ist der Frühling schon weit fortgeschritten, wenn die Ruster Winzer Ende April ihre Kellertüren öffnen, perfekt um Weinverkostung mit Seeurlaub zu kombinieren. Der Termin ist heiß begehrt, es heißt rechtzeitig Unterkunft sichern, denn „Weinschätze“ ist einer der wenigen und daher wertvollen Gelegenheiten ganz unkompliziert eine große […]
Ruster Autumn Timeless Wine Tasting
Friday, November 8, and Saturday, November 9, 2024—starting at 1 p.m. each day. Sunday is no longer a tasting day, but rather a day to buy the wine tasted on Friday and Saturday or to pick it up from the winemakers. It’s a must-attend event for me every year. In recent years, the weather has mostly been very sunny, but also […]
Wine Picnic at Himmelreich – Donnerskirchen
Next event: July 11, 2025, starting at 5:00 p.m. and going until late—it’s not for nothing that it always takes place on a full moon. The last event will be on August 14—again on a full moon. One of my personal favorite places/events is the wine picnic at Himmelreich. In these times of overtourism, you really shouldn’t reveal your favorite spots, but […]
The opera "AIDA" at Lake Neusiedl – Opera in the Quarry, July 10–August 24
Just about 3 km away from my lakeside cottages on Lake Neusiedl—and even within direct sight (since it’s up on the “mountain”)—lies the Sankt Margarethen Quarry, which has been a popular opera venue for nearly 30 years. It’s a lovely day trip by bike, and after the opera, the ride back to the stilt houses is almost entirely downhill. The program includes […]
RWB Vintage Wine Tasting
The vintage presentation by the Renowned Wineries of Burgenland will take place on May 23, 2024, at Esterhazy Palace in Eisenstadt. The event begins at 2:00 p.m. for industry professionals and from 6:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. for the general public. Admission is by voluntary donation to a charitable cause. A free shuttle bus will run from Vienna (departing at 1:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m.) to the Hilton at […]
Wine Tasting in Rust, April 2024
The so-called RUSTER WEINSCHÄTZE will take place this year from Friday, April 26, through Sunday, April 28. It’s one of the few—and therefore valuable—opportunities to easily sample a very wide variety of wines. Nearly 30 Ruster winemakers, many of whom are often inaccessible for wine tastings without a prior reservation, will open the doors to their cellars and offer their wines for tasting. […]
Cycling around Lake Neusiedl
As an enthusiastic host of charming lakeside cottages, I know that most of my guests spend the majority of their time by or on the water, and I completely understand that. Still, Burgenland and the picturesque Lake Neusiedl are also great places to explore by bike—after all, the terrain is very flat. Here, you need […]

Eine herausragende Weinmesse namens Karakterre mit Orange bzw. Natural Weinen ist am 22. und 23. Mai in Eisenstadt. Hier ein ganz kurze Einführung + Links.
