Frequently Asked Questions

What is Austrian wine?

Austrian wine is an embodiment of the country's rich viticulture heritage that extends back for centuries. Nestled in the heart of Europe, Austria's vineyards benefit from unique terroirs and a climate conducive to winemaking. These wines often carry a signature freshness and purity of fruit. The Austrian wine industry focuses on quality over quantity, making every bottle a testament to meticulous craftsmanship and a deep respect for nature. With diverse grape varieties cultivated, Austria offers a kaleidoscope of wine experiences awaiting discovery.

What are the most popular Austrian wines?

Austria's wine scene may be compact, but it's bursting with flavors and famed varieties. Grüner Veltliner is undoubtedly the star, accounting for nearly a third of the country's vineyards. This indigenous grape delivers wines with characteristic white pepper notes and a tantalizing zestiness. Riesling is another popular white, often grown on the steep slopes of Wachau and exuding mineral-rich flavors. On the red front, Zweigelt and Blaufränkisch lead the way, captivating palates with their deep colors and intricate taste profiles.

What are the different types of Austrian wine?

Diversity is at the heart of Austrian wines. While white wines dominate, there are still a plethora of choices to explore. Key white grape varieties include Grüner Veltliner, Riesling, and Weißburgunder (Pinot Blanc). Among reds, Zweigelt reigns supreme, followed closely by Blaufränkisch and St. Laurent. Austria also boasts of sweet wines, notably from regions like Burgenland, where the noble rot bestows grapes with a dense, honeyed character, resulting in remarkable dessert wines.

What are the best Austrian wines?

The mineral-laden Rieslings and expressive Grüner Veltliners from Wachau often find themselves at the top of critics' lists. The reds of Burgenland, particularly those made from Blaufränkisch, are known for their depth and complexity. The sweet wines, like the Trockenbeerenauslese from Neusiedlersee, are treasures in the dessert wine world, celebrated for their richness and longevity.

What are the foods best paired with Austrian wines?

Austrian wines are as versatile in pairings as they are in flavor profiles. Grüner Veltliner, with its crisp acidity, is a perfect match for light dishes, such as seafood or salads. Rieslings, especially those with a touch of sweetness, complement spicy Asian cuisines. The robust reds, like Blaufränkisch or Zweigelt, are ideal for heartier meals, including grilled meats or traditional Austrian dishes like Wiener Schnitzel. And for those sweet wine treasures? They're sublime with blue cheeses or fruit-based desserts.
