Eibiswald.
Home of Schilcher wine in the hills of Western Styria.

Eibiswald lies in Western Styria, in the hill country south of Graz, known for Schilcher, the region's distinctive rosé wine. Vineyards cover the slopes around the village, and many growers run small Buschenschank taverns pouring their own wine. The village centre is compact, built around a market square and the parish church, with narrow streets opening quickly onto vine rows.
Walking paths cross the surrounding hills and link Eibiswald to neighbouring wine villages, with views back over the valley. The hilly terrain suits both walking and cycling, and the vineyards change character with the seasons. Autumn brings the grape harvest and a run of wine festivals, when cellars open their doors and taverns fill with locals and visitors who come to taste the new vintage. Spring brings the vines into leaf, and Eibiswald takes on a quieter, greener mood outside the harvest months.
