The wine region of Niederösterreich
Homeland of Grüner Veltliner: Austria's signature dry whites, lively, peppery ("Pfefferl"), with notes of citrus, green apple, fennel and fine minerality, from crunchy everyday to great age-worthy bottles on lees. Taut, precise Riesling on the Wachau terraces (UNESCO). Quieter reds: supple Zweigelt with red fruit. Subregions: Wachau, Kremstal, Kamptal, Wagram, Weinviertel.
The wine region of Weinland
Vast German-speaking region in north-eastern Switzerland, the country's largest production area. Signature Pinot Noir (Blauburgunder): fine, fresh reds with notes of cherry, raspberry, undergrowth and sweet spices, silky tannins. Elegant, delicate style, often barrel-aged. Also light, floral Müller-Thurgau (Riesling-Sylvaner), lively, lemony native Räuschling, ample Pinot Gris.
The word of the wine: Véraison
A phase in the vegetative cycle of the vine that takes place in summer, usually in August, when the grapes change colour from green to red (for reds) or yellow (for whites). This stage heralds the beginning of ripening.
