Description

After a winter that was once again very dry, and rather too mild, concerns about the bud break were relieved by a cool (at least, from today's point of view!) and rainy May. Therefore, flowering occured as "normal" in mid-June and continued in a basically positive way - but, ultimately, not totally positive; fruit set was clearly below the record set in 2018. Although the summer was dry and partly hot as well, there were nevertheless phases of coolness and rain. The entire year overall was around two weeks later than in 2018 - though still a bit earlier than the vintages of the 1980s. Probably 2019 was a year of the "new normal"! The grape harvest began in the last week of August - for sparkling wine - and was completed by the end of the first week of October for Kamptal wines of origin. There were very few rainy days during this time. The physiological ripeness and the taste of the grapes along with the analysis of the juice all give us hope that 2019 will be one of the very good vintages.

APPEARANCE

About Austrian Wine

Austria is a country with over 4000 years of wine making history, however, it unfortunately doesn't seem to enjoy the status and popularity that the high quality of it's wines deserve. Decades later, the country is still feeling the effects of a scandal in 1985 that destroyed its credibility at the time. 

Grüner Veltliner is the most important wine made in Austria, distinguished by its lightly fruity, noticeable spice and characteristic white pepper notes. This variety comprises roughly a third of all plantings. In terms of volume, Riesling plays a much smaller role than in Germany, but is responsible for some of the most appreciated dry white wines made in the country.

In red varietals, Austrian native varieties are dominant and include the tart and peppery Zweigelt, spicy and dense Blaufränkisch and juicy Saint Laurent.
