Weingut Dietl is a family wine estate in Riegersburg, in Styria, that hires out a modern lounge for about 50 people and a vineyard pavilion. They suit company events, seminars, weddings, private tastings and celebrations, with regional catering arranged around your event.
Seminars and company events
The Scheibelberg Lounge opened in spring 2022 and is rented for exclusive, sole use. The estate lists company events, Christmas parties, seminars, private wine tastings and exhibition openings among its uses. For a seminar the lounge has what is needed: a projector and screen, adjustable light temperature and a sound system. The room is fully air-conditioned and has a terrace, a cozy lounge corner and a view over the vineyards. The estate describes it as small but fine, with space for around 50 people.
The Vineyard Pavilion at the top of the vineyard can be booked for a private tasting or a company event. It is not open to the public and access follows prior booking with a wine purchase or consumption.
Weddings and receptions
The lounge is listed for weddings, and the pavilion for the civil ceremony, a toast with finger food and wedding photos. It has a view of the town of Feldbach, the Gleichenberger Kogel and the estate's vineyards, and it is also offered for proposals and vineyard picnics. A church ceremony is possible at nearby Schloss Kornberg in combination with the pavilion. In bad weather, a ceremony can take place in the castle's own weatherproof pavilion.
Rooms and capacities
The Scheibelberg Lounge holds around 50 people, with a tolerance given as plus or minus. The Vineyard Pavilion has no stated capacity. The estate describes it as a place to linger, celebrate and enjoy, exclusively for its guests.
Accommodation
The estate runs a holiday house, listed in its menu as Ferienhaus. The pages read give no details on beds, so ask the team how many guests it takes and how to combine it with your event.
Catering
Regional catering is arranged for celebrations, or you can choose self service. The estate recommends the Schlosswirt Kornberg, only 400 meters away. It prepares cold platters, buffets, barbecue or show cooking, gala menus and finger food, for example at the pavilion. A food truck is also possible, such as a barbecue or burger truck, and the team gives advice and makes contacts. The estate's own wines go with every format.
History and setting
Weingut Dietl is run by Andrea and Andreas Kessler-Dietl and describes its wines as each having an identity and a story. The lounge and pavilion are recent additions, built to host celebrations on the farm. The estate sells wine daily and holds larger tastings after prior notice.
Getting there
The estate is in Riegersburg, in the Styrian hills. The pavilion is reached mainly on foot through the vineyards. For guests who find walking hard, access by car or by the estate's golf cart is offered when the weather is dry and sunny.
