Winzerzimmer - Weingut Tinhof

This is a genuinely operating winery which is situated in the neighbourhood of St Georgen, a 5 minute drive or 40 minute walk from the centre of Eisenstadt. The whole suburb contains many wineries and the area is surrounded by the actual vineyards. All in all, a very lovely environment. We enjoyed conversations with our friendly hosts, as they personally served us breakfast and as they conducted their wine activities around the property. The room was very neat, clean and convenient, and guests are allowed to self-serve drinks (wine, soft drinks, coffee and tea) from the breakfast room any time of day and keep a record which is later added to the bill (very fair prices). Our visit was during the grape harvest and the owners took us on a tour of of their vineyards, showed us the harvesting and demonstrated their wine-making activities. Home made preserves and fresh grape juice at breakfast were just great, and of course the house wine was on offer. During the "Heurigen" time it was an easy walk to the nearby wine-bars which were all in the St Georgen neighbourhood. Parking on the street was no problem. Distance to Vienna airport was also very convenient (just 40 mins drive).
