Winzer Herzog Georg & Waldheuriger

Winemaker Georg Herzog and his Waldheuriger in Großau near Bad Vöslau are a family business with winegrowing, a Heuriger and its own farm on the edge of the Vienna Woods (Wienerwald). The Heuriger is open six to seven times a year for 14 days each time; wine is available from the estate and in the online shop.

Three generations on the farm

Manager Georg Josef Herzog has worked full-time in the business since 1995 and is a master winegrower and cellar master and a certified wine taster. Christine Herzog comes from the Zöchling winegrowing family in Günselsdorf and looks after the wine shop, wine sales and accounts. Son Georg Christian has graduated from the wine school in Krems and works in the cellar, the vineyard and the fields; daughter Theresa helps at the Heuriger.

The Waldheuriger

The Heuriger premises were built in the mid-1970s and have room for around 120 guests. Most of what is served comes from their own production: the farm keeps pigs, cattle and chickens, and slaughtering takes place in its own certified slaughter room without animal transport.

• Hot: Blunze (black pudding), Bratwürstel, roast pork and caraway roast pork
• Cold: Heuriger Jause, spreads, salads and open sandwiches
• From the farm's own smokehouse: Presswurst (brawn sausage), bacon, smoked pork, liver pâté and Grammelschmalz (lard with crackling)

Once a year there is the Blunzenkirtag. During the opening period you can book tables by phone only.

The wines

The range includes red and white wines, white wine with residual sweetness, sparkling wines, house wines and grape juice. There is also the "Schurli Sprizza" in a 0.33-litre bottle and the Pechertröpferl, a white wine to which resin from the local black pine is added during fermentation. In 2026 the business won gold at the Thermenregion awards and at the NÖ Weinmesse, and the Heilige Berg 2023 made it into the Salon Österreich.
