3 Star Michelin Chef Pairing of Palatschinken and Austrian Wine
Wine made like the Romans made wine from Wieninger Wines. Palatschinken (Austrian crepes) prepared by 3-star Michelin Chef Juan Amador with world-famous Staud’s preserves. Add in world-renowned tenor, Michael Schade for a history lesson on the Austrian definition of slightly naughty. And where does this take place? How about on the Wiener Riesenrad, a famous 200-foot-tall Ferris Wheel in Vienna, Austria. The Weiner Riesenrad was erected in 1897 to celebrate the Golden Jubilee of Emperor Franz Josef I. Sip and enjoy this perfect pairing in the clouds!
Enjoy the Austrian authenticity as Jessica Altieri is serenaded by world-renowned tenor, Michael Schade. Schade regularly performs at the Canadian Opera Company, Vienna Staatsoper, Salzburg Festival, Metropolitan Opera, Washington Opera, Opéra National de Paris, San Francisco Opera, Hamburg State Opera, the Lyric Opera of Chicago and the Los Angeles Opera. Private and luxury cabins in the Wiener Riesenrad Ferris Wheel can be reserved for romantic, candle-light dinners—an elegant and exclusive setting with appetizers and Hochriegl “Cuvee Sophie” sparkling wine followed by a three-course meal and two bottles of wine, Grüner Veltliner Bründlmayer and Wiener Trilogie Wieninger. Though, unfortunately, private serenades by Michael Schade aren’t always part of the deal. The Ferris Wheel cabins can also be hired for weddings, groups, cocktail hours, breakfasts, and coffee breaks. Stay tuned to Wine Channel TV for more exclusive “Sip Some Austria” featured videos.
