Taste the Race IV
The Legend – Chapter III
very legend has a beginning. Just like the legend of the Nightrace, which began its first chapter in 1997. Now, with this wine, another chapter of this legend is being written. With every bottle sold, the youth ski program of the WSV Schladming is supported, allowing the legend to grow richer with yet another chapter.

Taste the Race
As part of "Taste the Race," for the third time on September 23rd, 2025, an exclusive wine was blended that embodies the passion and emotion of the legendary Nightrace. In the impressive setting of the barrique cellar, the official wine for the upcoming floodlit spectacle was selected by a prestigious jury consisting of wine ambassador and skiing legend Benjamin Raich, former ski racer Lizz Görgl, former ski racer Nicole Schmidhofer, former ski racer Christian Mayer, president of the Styrian Sommelier Union Sabine Flieser-Just, culinary ambassador Alexandra Gorsche, Wolfgang Schrefler from WSV Schladming and "Mr Nightrace" Hans Grogl.
The winning wine is a characterful red blend from the 2020 vintage by winemaking siblings Katharina and Karl G. Thaller, composed of Merlot and Zweigelt. As in previous years, the proceeds will go toward projects supporting youth ski development. "Taste the Race Chapter IV" not only offers enjoyable moments but also makes a lasting contribution to the future of young people.
The limited edition for the Nightrace on January 27th and 28th, 2026, can now be pre-ordered in a signed wooden box of 6 bottles, autographed by wine ambassador and ski legend Benjamin Raich!
6 bottles of TASTE THE RACE IV packed in the signed wooden box.

Cabernet Sauvignon
excl. Shipping costs
My small berries highlight depth of colour and strong tannin. Ripe cassis on the nose, entwined with proper spice and elegance on the palate. I am the perfect “pasta wine” as well as a noble companion solo.
Eruption Cuvée Zusammenhalt
excl. Shipping costs
Zusammenhalt (Cooperation): This is the great bond of the Eruption winemakers’ community. Even if the climate in the conspiratorial group is often compared with the force of volcanism, the collision of tectonic plates, without cohesion this quite fertilizing dynamic would not be possible. This unique cuvée consists of one very good barrel of red wine […]
