Steiermark, also known as Styria, is a wine region located in the southeast of Austria. It is the country's second-largest wine region, known for its distinctive white wines made from Sauvignon Blanc, Welschriesling, and Gelber Muskateller grapes. The region is divided into three sub-regions: Südsteiermark, Weststeiermark, and Südoststeiermark. Steiermark has a long history of wine production, dating back to the Roman times.

The main grape varieties grown in Steiermark are Sauvignon Blanc, Welschriesling, Gelber Muskateller, Weißburgunder (Pinot Blanc), Morillon (Chardonnay), and Traminer. The region is known for its crisp, aromatic white wines with high acidity and mineral notes. Steiermark also produces some red wines, primarily from Blauer Wildbacher and Zweigelt grapes.
