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: Flint (smell of)
Mineral odour reminiscent of flint and flint heated during sharpening.
