Der Weingarten

Der Weingarten (stylized as DER WEIN[:Garten:]) is a winery and tavern — a Buschenschank — in Vienna, Austria. It grew out of a convivial gathering among friends who shared good wine and freshly prepared snacks, and the founders set out to make that off-duty feeling available to a wider public. After more than a year of renovation carried out by hand, the Buschenschank opened on 3 June 2023, an occasion the house describes as a dream fulfilled with the sale of its first Achter'l (an eighth-litre of wine). The business combines wine production with hospitality. Alongside its own Gemischter Satz — the traditional Viennese field blend — it serves a range of fruity, summery spritzer variations such as passion fruit, wildberry, and ginger, positioned as refreshment on hot summer days. The kitchen follows a philosophy that pairs resource-conscious sustainability with a love of culinary variety, offering seasonally changing, freshly prepared spreads that range from traditional Grammelschmalz (crackling lard) through Gorgonzola to banana-curry, with an original Egyptian hummus made from an old family recipe recommended for vegan guests. The garden itself is central to the concept. It is presented as a place for relaxed afternoons, sociable evenings, and celebrations of all kinds, with a varied mix of seating so that each guest can find a personal favourite spot. During opening hours a gate gives direct access from the garden into the Ried — the vineyard parcel — an area suggested for romantic picnics, walks, or as an extension of the venue. Der Weingarten is a small, privately held Austrian hospitality and wine business based in Vienna. It operates in the local Viennese market, and its identity rests on the combination of its own wine, a garden setting, and a seasonal, sustainability-minded food offer rather than on large-scale distribution.

Der Weingarten began as a convivial gathering among friends, with good wine and freshly prepared snacks. The founders describe the goal of making that particular feeling of being off-duty and at home available to many more people as the guiding idea behind what they call their heart project. The venue was built through more than a year of renovation carried out by the founders' own hands. The Buschenschank, styled DER WEIN[:Garten:], opened on 3 June 2023; the house marks the sale of its first Achter'l as the moment a dream came true. From that starting point the business has operated as a combined winery and tavern in Vienna, serving its own Gemischter Satz alongside spritzer variations and a seasonally changing food menu, with the garden and its direct gate into the Ried forming a central part of the guest experience.
