The wine region of Bergland
Vast Alpine zone of western Austria (Carinthia, Upper Austria, Salzburg, Tyrol, Vorarlberg), cool climate tempered by the Atlantic, vines confined to sheltered south-facing slopes (~125 ha). Chardonnay is king in whites: crisp and mineral with notes of green apple, citrus, white flowers and a fresh alpine touch. Aromatic Müller-Thurgau, spicy Frühroter Veltliner and full Pinot Gris as complements. Light Blauer Portugieser in reds.
The word of the wine: Density per hectare
Number of vines per hectare. For the same yield, a vine planted with 3,000 vines per hectare bears many more bunches (per vine) than a vine planted with 10,000. The grapes will therefore be less rich in sugar and polyphenols (tannins, aromas...).
