The wine region of Wachau
Austrian jewel of racy whites on Danube terraces (35 km): signature Grüner Veltliner as white king — full-bodied and peppery with notes of citrus, green apple, lentil, stone fruit and a peppery mineral touch, taut acidity. Taut, tropical Riesling on gneiss (gföhler) with notes of apricot, peach, citrus and racy minerality — great ageing. Steinfeder/Federspiel/Smaragd classification. Vertiginous slopes, loess and gneiss.
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: Pinot meunier
Cultivated in the 19th century in all the northern vineyards, this black grape variety has largely regressed since. Very present in the Marne valley, it constitutes a third of the vineyards in Champagne, alongside pinot noir and chardonnay with which it is often blended. It brings roundness and red and yellow fruit aromas to champagnes. Pinot meunier is also the dominant grape variety in red and rosé wines in the Orleans AOC and the rare Touraine-Noble-Joué, a grey wine. Syn.: meunier.
