Discover more about Cellars of the Prince of Liechtenstein

The Cellars of the Prince of Liechtenstein, or Hofkellerei, provide an immersive experience into the world of winemaking in the heart of Vaduz. Owned by the Princely Family, the estate has a rich history dating back to 1712 when Prince Johann Adam I acquired the Earldom of Vaduz. The Hofkellerei is composed of the Vaduz Domain and the Herawingert vineyards, which constitute the core of viticulture in Liechtenstein. The winery's location in the Rhine Valley benefits from a mild climate and the warm, dry Foehn wind, creating ideal conditions for growing Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes. These grapes are used to produce a range of wines, celebrated for their class and refinement. Wine production in Liechtenstein has ancient roots, with evidence suggesting that the Ancient Romans planted the first vines in the country. Today, over 100 winegrowers contribute to Liechtenstein's diverse wine culture. Visitors to the Hofkellerei can partake in wine tastings to sample the estate's offerings and learn about the history of the winery. The cozy and welcoming atmosphere adds to the experience. The estate also includes the Hofkellerei in Wilfersdorf, Austria, connecting two regions with distinct wine-making traditions. The restaurant Torkel, located in the former pressing house, offers a premier culinary destination in Vaduz.
