Weingut & Heuriger Niki Windisch

The winery and Heuriger of Niki Windisch is on Kurze Zeile in Großengersdorf in the southern Weinviertel. Besides easy-drinking white wines, Windisch makes single-vineyard wines and red wines such as Merlot and Blaufränkisch, which the winery describes as unusual for the Weinviertel.

Niki Windisch sees winegrowing as "a craft like any other". His wines grow on nine single vineyards (Rieden), including Holzberg, Sonnleithen, Satzen, Leiten and Berggrund. At the winery there are tastings and, by arrangement, cellar tours, and you can also order in the online shop.

Wines and awards

• White: Weinviertel DAC, Gemischter Satz, Gelber Muskateller and single-vineyard wines such as Grüner Veltliner Ried Hofweingärten or Weinviertel DAC Reserve Ried Sonnleithen.
• Red: Merlot Sandwühler, Blaufränkisch Ried Leiten, Pinot Noir and Zweigelt from the Rieden Berggrund and Holzberg.
• Others: the cuvée E.M.M.A., named after daughter Emma, the wines Nick White and Nick Red as well as the sparkling wines Blanc de Blancs and Rosé Brut.
• Awards: in the Vinaria wine guide 2024/25 the winery received four crowns for the first time, and three wines received the top rating of five stars. The Merlot Sandwühler was once variety winner at Falstaff and has been on the podium several times, and the Gelber Muskateller Ried Satzen Privat won the Vinaria Muskateller tasting with the 2019 vintage.

The Heuriger

The Heuriger is open (in season) in blocks from Thursday to Sunday, each from 16 o'clock. For each Heuriger block the kitchen prepares its own regional specialities; the business's photos show, for example, small aspic terrines, wild garlic bread, asparagus or quark and chocolate tartlets. The Heuriger has been awarded the Top-Heuriger title. In December 2026 there is a speciality week on two weekends.

Buying at the winery

You can come to buy wine at the winery from Monday to Saturday, on Heuriger days with a lunch break until 16 o'clock. Because Niki Windisch is often in the vineyard, the winery asks you to call briefly in advance or pre-order in the online shop.
