Heuriger

Heuriger ( ; Austro-Bavarian: (pl.) Heiriga, Heiricha) is the name given to those Eastern-Austrian wine-taverns, where wine-growers serve the most recent year's wine and where patrons can experience Gemütlichkeit. They need a special licence. Heurig means this year's (as an adjective) in Swiss German and Austrian German; thus, a Heuriger.
