🍇 Organic Wines from Sweden’s West Coast

Ästad Vingård is a pioneer in organic viticulture in Halland, growing cold-hardy grape varieties that thrive in Sweden’s cool climate. The estate focuses on:

• Solaris – an aromatic white grape producing crisp, fresh wines with citrus, elderflower, and mineral notes

• Souvignier Gris and Muscaris – other disease-resistant white varieties known for expressive fruit and floral aromas

• Pinot Nova – used in experimental rosés and lighter red wines

Wines are crafted with a low-intervention philosophy, and guests can book guided tastings to explore the estate’s white and sparkling wine offerings.

🧖 Relax & Reconnect

Ästad Vingård is also home to Sinne Spa, a nature-inspired wellness center where you can move between:

• Seven outdoor hot spring-style pools

• Dry and steam saunas

• Cold plunges and forest walk paths

• Mindful experiences like silent rooms and aroma rituals

Whether you spend the afternoon floating under the sky or enjoying a massage, the spa is an essential part of the Ästad experience.
