THE Wine Experience "Wine Fair Innsbruck"

23rd International Wine Fair Innsbruck: Where truth lies in wine – and enjoyment takes center stage!

From February 20 to 22, 2025, Messe Innsbruck will transform into a mecca for wine lovers, restaurateurs, wine merchants, and connoisseurs. Around 130 exhibitors from seven nations invite you to discover more than 1,300 wines! The wines can be tasted free of charge as part of the entrance fee. Find your personal favorite wine on-site – true to the motto: "Taste, Enjoy, Experience & (W)ine Shopping."

The highlight for everyone who loves wine
Everything here revolves around enjoyment, diversity, and the quality of wines – without deception. Where else can you personally ensure the authenticity and outstanding quality of these fine wines directly from the vintners? Discover classics like Austrian red and white wines, as well as highlights from Italy, Spain, Hungary, Slovenia, or even the sunny island of Mallorca.

For every taste – and the truth in every glass
The Wine Fair Innsbruck offers a unique opportunity to make the label a secondary concern. Here, only your taste matters! Taste a wide variety of wines free of charge with your admission ticket, exchange ideas directly with vintners, and deepen your knowledge of the world of wine. Expertly led wine seminars by certified sommelier Alexander Gobin provide unforgettable "aha" moments.

Experience wine and (W)ine shopping at Western Austria’s largest wine fair
The focus of the wine fair is on conscious and enjoyable shopping. Find your favorite wine that perfectly suits your taste and take it home with you. Whether for restaurateurs, wine merchants, or private connoisseurs – at Western Austria’s largest wine fair, there is a perfect wine for every occasion.

Culinary delights meet wine – A treat for all senses
Alongside exquisite wines, you can expect a variety of culinary highlights: from exquisite salami, bacon, fine cheeses, delicate marzipan, aromatic spices, flavorful mustard creations, high-quality olive oils, and a range of homemade jams to tempting sweets. The new wine fair restaurant "Herbert’s Dorfmetzgerei" from Vorarlberg rounds off the experience with first-class meat specialties, creating unforgettable moments of indulgence.

Tradition and continuity over generations are no longer a given – but there are many beautiful wine stories.
Many wineries have to close due to a lack of successors, but some experience a revival – like the renowned winemaker family MURSA from Slovenia. The winery, with over 400 years of tradition, is now being led once again after a long break by Maša Samec, a descendant of the MURSA family. In the sun-kissed wine region of Štajerska, Slovenia, top-quality wines are produced that will delight every wine lover.

Blind tasting with wine awards: The highlight of the wine fair
The blind tasting by VIP jurors on January 24, 2025, at Congress Innsbruck crowned the best red, white, and rosé wines. The Top 10 will be announced in week 6, followed by the Top 5 in week 7. On February 20, 2025, two hours before the fair opens, the winners will be announced live from the fair on Radio U1. At the fair, you will have the chance to taste and purchase the award-winning wines – while supplies last. All updates can be found on Radio U1 and at www.weinmesse.at!
