30 years RWB: Burgenland's winegrowers celebrate with wine and culinary highlights!

Csello Mühle Oslip, Österreich - The renowned wineries Burgenland (RWB) celebrate their 30th anniversary in 2025. Founded in 1995, the RWB with twelve winemakers are committed to the near -natural viticulture and the diversity. As part of the anniversary celebration "RWB & Friends", which took place on May 22nd in the Csello Mühle Oslip, the importance of the association for Austrian viticulture was recognized. Over 100 wines from Austria, Italy, France, Germany and Switzerland were tasted, including wines from renowned winemakers such as Gaja and La Massa from Italy as well as Domaine Guilbert-Gillet and Champagne Tarlant from France. RWB President Kurt Feiler and his colleagues took a record of the past three decades.

The goal of the RWB foundation was not only the exchange among winegrowers, but also the promotion of the natural viticulture and the increase in the reputation of Burgenland wines. As part of the celebrations, the RWB Special Edition "30 years RWB" was also presented, which includes 12 flagship wines in a limited edition. A special highlight was the allocation of an annual scholarship of 1,000 euros for participants in the "Wset Diploma in Wines and Spirits".

The RWB is actively committed to natural viticulture and biodiversity, the focus is on autochthonous grape varieties such as Blaufränkisch, Chardonnay and Zweigelt. The wines of the RWB are characterized by individuality and sort typicality, and all winemakers run family -run companies in which they grow and process their own grapes.

sustainability in Burgenland viticulture

The importance of sustainability is also increasingly emphasized in the context of the Austrian viticulture. In Burgenland, where 24% of the vineyards are bio-certified, wineries are strongly careful to promote environmentally conscious growing methods. This is contrasting to agricultural practices in other winegrowers where monocultures predominate. In Austria, the viticulture area is managed on average by small, family -run companies, with the average vineyard area being around 4 hectares.

Due to the management of strict standards and the increasing certification with the “sustainable Austria” seal, it is ensured that viticulture is both profitable and environmentally friendly. For example, a high -quality Sauvignon Blanc from Styria can achieve high market prices that cannot be achieved with conventional cultivation methods.

Overall, it can be seen that the renowned wineries of Burgenland not only play an important role in Austrian viticulture, but are also a role model for the combination of tradition, quality and sustainable development.
