Domäne Wachau

Domäne Wachau is a winery in the Wachau Valley alongside the Danube River, featuring underground cellars and terraced vineyards that slope across the hillsides. The estate combines wine production facilities with historic architecture and showcases the cultivation of Grüner Veltliner and Riesling varieties.

The winery was established over three centuries ago and still uses a Baroque building with cellars dating to the early 18th century. The site reflects long-standing wine production practices that have continued in this region.

The name refers to the collective stewardship of winemaking families who shape how the valley looks and functions today. Visitors notice stone terraces and traditional farming methods that reflect decades of local know-how passed down through generations.

The site is set up for walking tours and visits, with paths through the terraces and access to the cellars. Wear comfortable footwear and be prepared for the steep slopes of the valley.

The property includes the Kellerschlössel, a tavern with outdoor seating nestled among the vineyards where visitors gather to eat and drink. Boat trips along the Danube depart from the nearby area and offer a different view of the surrounding landscape.
