Overview

Weingut Heuriger Schilling is a family-run winery and traditional Viennese Heuriger (tavern) located in Strebersdorf, at the foot of the Bisamberg in Vienna, Austria. The estate combines winegrowing with a popular excursion tavern, offering guests its own wines alongside a buffet of seasonal specialties. The winery cultivates approximately 3.0 hectares on the southern slope of the Bisamberg within the Vienna winegrowing region, producing Wiener Gemischter Satz DAC, Muskateller, Sauvignon blanc, Grüner Veltliner, St. Laurent, and modern PIWI (fungus-resistant) varieties such as Blütenmuskateller, with cultivation described as close to nature and a transition to organic management underway. The Heuriger operation is a well-known destination for pleasure-seekers, featuring a natural grass garden surrounded by vineyards with views of the Bisamberg, shaded by walnut trees and a pergola, with around 300 seats and a children's play area. The indoor spaces include the "Alter Schankraum" (opened in 1976 with retro solid-wood furnishings, 120 seats) and a winter garden (opened in 2000, 120 seats, divisible into sections), both equipped with a tiled stove, farmhouse hearth, stage with piano, glass roof, and panoramic windows, making them suitable for celebrations of all kinds. A children's corner with a children's learning computer and playroom is available for children up to 12 years. The business is managed by DI Herbert Schilling, responsible for the vineyards and cellar, with Tony Allen overseeing winegrowing and cellar work, and Brigitta (Gitti) Schmidt handling food service. The Heuriger operates seasonally, with announced opening periods for 2026, and regular opening hours Tuesday to Friday from 16:00 to 22:00, Saturday from 15:00 to 22:00, and Sundays and holidays from 12:00 to 22:00; Mondays are rest days except holidays. The estate offers its own customer parking next to the winery and tavern, plus a second parking area at Oberörtl about 100 meters away. As a winery and tavern in Vienna, Weingut Heuriger Schilling represents the traditional Viennese Heuriger culture, combining wine production with hospitality in a rural setting within the city. The estate's focus on natural cultivation and PIWI varieties reflects broader trends in Austrian viticulture toward sustainability and disease-resistant grape varieties.
