Weingut Heuriger Schachl

Weingut Schachl-Uchatzi is a family winery with a Heuriger in Bad Vöslau-Gainfarn; the Heuriger opens at Am Felde 1, while the winery cellar and farm-gate sales are at Kernstockgasse 4. The centrepiece in the vineyard is Blauer Portugieser, the grape variety that has shaped Bad Vöslau for over 250 years.

Heuriger with hot food

The Heuriger is open on fixed dates, then daily from 10:00 with indoor seating and garden, hot food until 20:30. The daily menu includes, for example, Surschnitzel, fried chicken fillet, Bratwürstl with sauerkraut, venison ragout with napkin dumpling or fried celeriac, plus a cold Heuriger buffet. For something sweet there is Kardinalschnitte, Cremeschnitte and Topfenstrudel – and a chocolate made with Blauer Portugieser.

Wine from the rock cellar

The winery cellar is in the former rock cellar of the lords of the castle, the von Fries family, and has been owned by the family since the 1930s. White wines such as Welschriesling, Chardonnay and Muskateller mature in stainless steel tanks, the red wines for around a year in large wooden casks, some in barriques of French oak. Grapes are harvested selectively by hand. The business is certified under „Nachhaltig Austria“ by the LACON-Institut. Wine is available at the farm and in the online shop; card payment is not possible in the winery cellar, and while the Heuriger is open it only opens irregularly.
