My wife and I came to Durnstein (after a week in Vienna on a Sunday night. Our host Johann in Sanger Blondl (also excellently divided some recommendations for a light dinner and especially encouraged us to visit the opportunity Heurigan Branigan....We couldn't be happier that we did! Above all, a winemaker, Sean is this special kind of host who more than a hobby (his words).

We traveled through the Wachau and held in Durenstein for a taste of wine. We came over Shon's winery and enjoyed amazing hospitality and a warm welcome.
