The subject of this new series on wineanorak, Austria is rapidly becoming one of my favourite wine countries. It’s only recently, however, that Austrian wines have come on to the radar screens of wine geeks in the UK and USA.
Most ‘average’ consumers don’t realise this, but Austria makes brilliant, world class dry white wines from Riesling and Grüner Veltliner, although this message has now definitely filtered through to wine geeks across the globe. The reason Austrian wines have not been better known abroad is probably because the domestic market greedily snaps up most of the good stuff, and this demand keeps the prices high.
Indeed, Austria doesn’t actually make that much wine. But the word is out: the best Austrian whites are a match for any, and increasing numbers of wine buffs are switching on to them both in the USA and UK.
