A Steiermark wine case is always six bottles from one estate, never mixed across producers. The wines are chosen by the winery or by one of our wine experts, and the case is shipped directly from the winery. The region divides into three distinct zones — Südsteiermark, Weststeiermark and Vulkanland Steiermark — and a case often traces how one producer works across the varieties suited to their particular slopes. On Free Grape Society, producers ship directly from their own cellar, with no importer or warehouse in between, so the bottles arrive exactly as they left the estate.

Beyond the cases, Steiermark's individual bottles are built on steep hillside vineyards where Sauvignon Blanc and Welschriesling dominate the whites, and Schilcher — a pale rosé made from Blauer Wildbacher grown almost exclusively in Weststeiermark — gives the region one of Austria's most distinctive styles. The wines listed here come from growers farming their own parcels across Steiermark's three sub-regions.

Steiermark's producers tend to work small holdings on gradient slopes that require hand-harvesting, with many estates staying in the same family across generations. The region has built a reputation for aromatic, high-acid whites that reflect the cool elevations and varied soils — from volcanic rock in the east to sandstone and clay in the south. Free Grape Society is a society of producers, independent experts and wine lovers, not a shop, and the growers here sell on their own terms, direct to the buyer.

Every case is six bottles from a single Steiermark estate. The wines are chosen by the winery or by one of our wine experts, and the case is shipped directly from the winery. The six bottles often span different grape varieties or vineyard sites from within the estate's holdings. The contents are listed on each case page before you order.
Average delivery is 8 to 9 days from order to door. The full range is 4 to 14 days depending on the producer's location and your delivery address. Wines ship directly from the producer's cellar, not from a central warehouse.
Start with the producer's profile to get a sense of where they farm and what they make. Steiermark's three sub-regions — Südsteiermark, Weststeiermark and Vulkanland Steiermark — produce noticeably different styles, from the aromatic Sauvignon Blancs of the south to the volcanic-influenced whites of the east and the Schilcher rosé of the west. Independent expert reviews on individual wine pages can also help you judge whether a style suits your taste.
Each case comes from one estate, so the contents reflect what that estate grows and makes. If you are looking for a particular grape — Sauvignon Blanc, Welschriesling, or Blauer Wildbacher for Schilcher — browse the producers listed on this page and read their case descriptions to find a selection that fits what you are after.
The independent wine experts listed on this page have personal experience with wines from Steiermark and can point you toward a case or a producer that fits your taste. Browse their profiles to read their reviews and track records, then send your question directly through their profile page.
Each case is six bottles from one producer's own range. Keeping it to one estate means the six bottles say something coherent about how that grower works their vineyards — it is closer to a personal introduction than a mixed sampler. Blending across producers would lose that clarity.
Yes. Free Grape Society ships across Europe, and Steiermark producers send their cases directly from their own cellars. Delivery typically takes between 4 and 14 days depending on your location. The full list of delivery countries and any applicable conditions is shown at checkout.
A Steiermark wine case from Free Grape Society is six bottles from one producer — not a sampler assembled from across the region. Steiermark is Austria's southernmost wine region, stretching across three distinct sub-regions: Südsteiermark, Weststeiermark, and Vulkanland Steiermark. Each has its own character. Südsteiermark, with its steep ridges and high altitude, is best known for Sauvignon Blanc and Welschriesling with pronounced freshness and mineral edge. Vulkanland Steiermark sits on volcanic soils that tend to give wines more texture and weight. In six bottles from one grower here, those differences show up: the altitude, the grape variety, the cellar approach. A wine case is a short, guided way into one estate before committing to individual bottles. Browse other Austrian wine cases or compare with neighbouring regions such as Niederösterreich and Burgenland.
Because each case stays with one producer, the six bottles reflect how a single Steiermark grower reads their own range. Some cases walk across a sub-region — a Sauvignon Blanc from a high-altitude parcel alongside a Welschriesling from a different slope, or a Schilcher rosé from Weststeiermark, where the Blauer Wildbacher grape is grown almost nowhere else in the world. Others show one grape variety across different vineyard sites or vintages. Schilcher — Weststeiermark's sharp, pale-pink local speciality made from Blauer Wildbacher — appears in some cases as a single bottle that introduces a style visitors rarely encounter outside the region. Reading the line-up before ordering tells you a good deal about where the producer's focus sits. For a broader view of the growers behind these cases, the Steiermark wineries page lists the estates working the region.
Steiermark is a region where the grower's hand and the exact site matter as much as the grape name on the label. The terrain is hilly and fragmented, with many small family estates farming steep parcels that cannot be mechanised. That scale means most producers here make relatively small volumes and are closely tied to their land. A wine case is a practical way to meet a single estate on its own terms — tasting how the same grower works across their range, rather than picking one bottle and guessing the rest. Independent wine experts on Free Grape Society review wines they have personally tasted, and those reviews appear on the individual wine pages and on the expert's own profile, so there is a record to read alongside the producer's own description. For the wines from Steiermark sold as individual bottles rather than cases, see [/wines/austria/steiermark]. Cases from other regions with similarly fragmented, family-scale viticulture include Friuli Venezia Giulia and Alsace.
