Austrian Wine

Jan 17, 2004 2 Replies

Having just returned from Austria and tried a number of very high quality wines, red as well as white, may I suggest that you try the Feiler Artinger



2001 Solitaire if you can get it. This wine is staggeringly good but not cheap - 26 Euro in Austria.

Wanted to let you know about a new importer of Austrian wines called Winemonger. We're based in California, but will be able to sell via the internet to 28 states when we launch in the spring. I'm not just shilling for my company, though- i mention it because Feiler-Artinger is one of the labels we will be importing, and I agree with your sentiment about their wine! The good news is that you'll be able to buy our Austrian labels here in the states for much less than you could before, because the only thing between you and the vinters is us (as opposed to there being about 5 people between you and the vintner, including an export broker, distributer, etc. etc.)

But the important part is that i got into this becuase i really love these wines. So if anyone wants to talk Austrian wines, i'd love to share what I can!

Our other vinters include: Donabaum (Johann, from Wachau) Lagler Hogl Velich Pasler Tscheppe Tschermonegg Braunstein Marutishof Gritsch Gsellman & Gsellman Weiss Wenzel Heiss

^^^^ Mauritiushof

Which Weiss from where?

Which Heiss from where?
