Vienna, Austria: Heurigen Wine Gardens
The uniquely Viennese institution of Heurige is two things: a young wine, and a place to drink it. Long ago, when the Hapsburg Emperors let Vienna’s vintners sell their own new wine tax-free, several hundred families opened these charming wine-garden eateries clustered around the edge of town — and a tradition was born.

excellent quality video, thank you for another reason to travel to europe. . .
As an American who lives in Austria and adores Vienna, I love whenever you post something about liebe Oesterreich. Thanks, Rick!
Lard, yum!
That looked like a nice way to spend a day.
I have never been to Austria except a quick jaunt to Kitzbuehel for a day of skiing while in university. Thanks for the update!
