Although a traditional field blend from the well-known site above Vienna, you could put the ripe, aromatic and concentrated 2013 Wiener Gemischter Satz Nussberg in any Traminer tasting and it would show well. Rose petals, lychees, peaches, cloves, yellow-skinned apples and other spices on the nose open to a rich, full-bodied, powerful yet fresh and very mineral, elegant palate full of finesse with a good finish. The aftertaste is long and keeps the tension vibrant. This field-blend Nussberg is another great 2013 from Fritz Wieninger. ... More details

Tank-rendered from a field blend of Pinot Blanc, Neuburger, Welschriesling, Grüner Veltliner, Sylvaner, Zierfandler, Rotgipfler, Traminer and Riesling, this September bottling delivers an explosively aromatic and invigoratingly piquant impression of pip- and pit-tinged pear and peach further accented with anise, celery seed, smoky black tea and white pepper. There is a background suggestive of greenhouse-like scents, Normandy pear cider fruitiness and chalk. Full (at 14.5% alcohol) and expansive, this nevertheless proves almost infinitely juicy, finishing with superb grip, animation and clarity and no trace of heat. (The strikingly mineral but surprisingly less succulent 2012 is lovely today, while the long-celebrated, now faintly Chablis-like 2005, also retasted alongside the 2013, displays encroaching old-wine tones. So I wouldn’t defer the pleasure of enjoying this 2013 soon and doubt it will be notably long-lived.) (Galloni)

Winery Wieninger

Country: Austria

Archaeological evidence suggests that grapevines have been grown and cultivated in what is today modern Austria for over four thousand years, making it one of the oldest wine producing countries in the world. Over the centuries, relatively little has changed in Austrian wine, with the dominant grape varietals continuing to be GrÃ¼ner Veltliner, Zweigelt, Pinot Noir and others. Austria is renowned for producing excellent and characterful dry white wines, although in the eastern part of the country, many wineries specialist in sweeter white wines made in a similar style to those of neighboring Hungary. Today, Austria has over fifty thousand hectares under vine, split over four key wine regions. The domestic wine industry remains strong, with Austrians drinking their local produce outside in the summer, and people around the world are beginning to once more rediscover this fascinating and ancient wine culture.
