35 years of Schlosshotel Fiss - The New Anniversary Wine

SHF Anniversary Wine: Premiere on 27 August

Raise a glass with us to 35 years of Schlosshotel Fiss

To mark our 35th anniversary, we have created an exclusive Grüner Veltliner in collaboration with the renowned Schloss Gobelsburg winery. The wine reflects what defines SHF: outstanding Austrian quality, authentic craftsmanship and memorable moments of enjoyment. 

The SHF Anniversary Wine will be served for the first time during dinner on 27 August 2026
We warmly invite our hotel guests to taste the Grüner Veltliner, accompanied by SHF’s certified sommelier, Peter Jobst, and a winemaker from Schloss Gobelsburg.

The Taste of Our Anniversary Wine
  • brisk freshness but low acidity.
  • harmonious, round, and fruity in flavou.
  • a wonderful all-rounder to lend each moment a very special finish.
  • an ode to Austria’s most significant autochthonous grape variety.

“After extensive testing and tasting, we have finally found the one: the single-vineyard wines from Schloss Gobelsburg in the Lower Austrian Kamptal are among the best Green Veltliner wines in all of Austria.”

The Story Behind the New SHF Anniversary Wine?

One type of grape quickly captured our attention: “Austria is home to a remarkable variety of grapes. The most significant white one, however, is the Green Veltliner, which I have had my eye on for a long time,” reveals the sommelier. The anniversary wine was the perfect opportunity to finally bring a very special Green Veltliner to the hotel. “After extensive testing and tasting, we have finally found the one: the single-vineyard wines from Schloss Gobelsburg in the Lower Austrian Kamptal are among the best Green Veltliner wines in all of Austria.” And that’s exactly what Schlosshotel Fiss embodies: a gourmet experience to surprise us and elevate the present moment – and continues to impress us long after we have emptied the glasses.

Living wine culture

Living wine culture White wine and fish, red wine and red meat – some unwritten rules of wine delight subsist. However, the hotel’s sommelier Peter Jobst knows there is more to the perfect wine experience: “A wine does not always just need to pair well with a dish. Above all, it must be a match for our guest and meet their taste.” And that’s also what makes the art of a sommelier: a good sommelier is more than an expert in wine; he is a connoisseur of human nature. The latter expertise is by far more difficult to acquire than wine knowledge. It’s an expertise that can only grow and mature with time.

It requires experience, curiosity, and enthusiasm – and Peter combines all of them. For eight years, he has curated the SHF wine portfolio – and our guests’ wine experience. He loves his job for allowing him to share his passion: “I enjoy the freedom to live and share my enthusiasm for wine and wine culture.”
