Southern Styria is known for its white wines, 90% of the vines are white varieties, above all the Sauvignon Blanc with around 25%. We tasted a sweet Beerenauslese of this variety from the Tement winery, a winery known for its very good Sauvignon Blanc wines.
Austria’s number 1 grape variety, which can be found on almost a third of Austria’s vineyards: Grüner Veltliner. Treated a bit neglected up to now – only twice a Trockenbeerenauslese
Hans had invited to a small menu, the seven courses of which were accompanied by many very good dry wines and two sweet wines from Domaine Zind Humbrecht.
