Viennese Wine Tasting in a Private Hidden Wine Cellar

Guide was knowledgeable and gave a great insight to Austrian wine. Perfect amount of time to enjoy/taste the wines and nibbles.

Lovely store and interesting historic cellars. Very knowledgeable and personable guide who really made it a fun experience.

Cornelius was wonderful host… We were expecting a different experience based on the description… But beware it does not include a tasting. It’s all self guided, but he was such a gentleman and asked us to let people know that if you want a tasting and real tour to book directly with Haas & Haas … graciously allowed us to taste his wines and directed us to a wonderful outdoor experience at another small vineyard in the outskirts of the city.the history of the sellers is impressive and definitely worth the trip!

Very informative chat about wine with a tasting and self guided tour through the shop’s cellars (which were a treat to visit during the heat wave this week!). The shop had a great selection of delicious and very affordable wines! Highly recommended for those interested in local and regional wines.

It is easy to find in the city centre near the Hard Rock Cafe. It was absolutely excellent! The gent who led the tour (I feel awful for forgetting his name!) but he was absolutely brilliant, a natural and so knowledgeable! He made the experience enjoyable, and was very fluent in the history of Austrian wine (which sounds like it’s had its ups and downs - 1980’s in looking at you). He was brilliant and the wine and tasting was excellent!

I am so happy that I chose this experience even though I am not a wine person. The wine’s and pairings were delicious! Cornelius gave an amazing history and made things easy to understand and fun! In addition, the store has some great products for souvenirs and for yourself too.

A very knowledgeable guide explained Vienna’s top quality wines and viticulture in an ancient cellar. Our guide offered generous samples of 3 different wines and a small dish of bread and charcuterie. There were very helpful visual references and the whole experience was well explained to a newcomer.

Brilliant experience, very knowledgeable host, at a venue full of surprises. The wine and accompanying food was well thought out

The wine tasting at Haas and Haas shop in Vienna was excellent. Cornelius our tasting guide was very good. The group was 11 people and lasted about 1 hour. The visit started by Cornelius taking the group down to the cellars under the shop for a look around and gave us a short history. The tasting was at a long table in part of the cellar. The cellars were empty apart from the wine tasting table. We tasted 3 Austrian wines, two whites and a red. All were very good and different. We were also given a small platter of meat, cheese, bread and dip to try with the wines. We have been on several wine tastings around Europe and the amount of wine given was about right for a good tasting. The group had first timers and more experienced wine tasters and Cornelius made sure all were included. He talked about the wines and the history of Austrian wine making and the grapes and what he saw in each wine so lots of information. The only downside was 3 Americans talking loudly all the time to each other while Cornelius was explaining things to the group. This was a good well-paced introduction to Austrian wines. Cornelius was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable and made this a very good experience. If you want to try Austrian wines with a good guide then I would recommend you book this experience.

Brilliant experience with a very knowledgeable owner. Had a great time tasting the wine in a lovely atmosphere.
