Besides being an own winegrowing region, Vienna today is a city with a lively, dynamic wine scene. A typical Austrian speciality is the real Viennese "Heurige" or wine taverns. It is as famous as other famous sights in Vienna and invites in a comfortable atmosphere to entertainment, fine Viennese wines and the fitting cuisine.

The real Viennese Heurige, in which only Viennese wines are served, is identified by a bunch of pine branches and by the word "Ausg'steckt" written on a board, which simultaneously shows when the tavern is open. More information on wien.info.
