Last week, I published Part 1 of my favourite wines from the 2024 Single Vineyard Summit, the massive tasting organised by the ÖTW annually at Grafenegg castle. Now in Part 2, I’m turning my attention to the three guest regions who also presented wines. If you need the background, check out last week’s article:

Here are my selections from Leithaberg, Eisenberg and Styria. These winemakers are not members of the ÖTW, but have a long history of working in collaboration with them. As with last week’s selections, these are all top scoring wines. I choose not to publish my exact scores, but everything below got 18.5/20 or higher.
