Wien

Wine regionAustria

Wien is Vienna’s urban wine-growing region, with Wiener Gemischter Satz its most distinctive protected wine tradition.

Wiener Gemischter Satz DAC comes from vineyards planted with several white grape varieties that are harvested and processed together. This is a vineyard mixture rather than simply an assembled cellar blend. The shared harvest links the varieties to a particular site and gives the tradition its practical identity.

Vienna also produces single-variety wines, so the city’s origin and its signature field blend are related but separate ideas. When exploring Gemischter Satz, compare producers or named sites and read the full designation. A mixed vineyard can contain different proportions of grapes, allowing considerable diversity within the tradition.
