Wine atlas?

Hi all,



Does anybody know of sites that have maps of wine regions, highlighting the regions and terroirs? Sort of like the Wine Atlas but online.



Thanks, Max



This is my favourite

And for some very detailed burgundy maps, see these notes

There's also a very nice collection of maps at Strat's Place:

We've got some Austrian wine region maps on our site, with the various vineyard sites marked on the more detailed maps. Main Austria map:

Where can I find information of which grapes are grown in which region?

Thanks, Max

For Austria?

is a great resource. You will have to dig around a bit though to get the information but there is masses there.

If only the marketing bodied of other countries/regions were as helpful!

This is by no means exhaustive, but generally speaking:

SOUTHERN STYRIA: Sauvignon Blanc Chardonnay Pinot Gris Pinot Blanc Welschriesling Gelber Muskateller

BURGENLAND: Welschriesling Muscat Ottonel Bouvier Traminer Furmint Riesling Pinot Gris Pinot Blanc Chardonnay Goldburger Neuburger Sauvignon Blanc Blaufrankisch St. Laurent Zweigelt Pinot Noir Cabernet Sauvignon

WACHAU Gruner Veltliner Riesling Neuburger Chardonnay Pinot Blanc Sauvignon Blanc

KAMPTAL Gruner Veltliner Riesling Chardonnay Zweigelt Pinot noir Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot

KREMSTAL Gruner Veltliner Riesling Chardonnay Rote Veltliner

THERMENREGION Neuburger Pinot Blanc Portugieser Zweigelt Pinot Noir Cabernet Sauvignon

TRAISENTAL Gruner Veltliner Welschriesling Riesling Chardonnay

VIENNA Gruner Veltliner Neuburger Traminer Chardonnay Riesling Pinot Noir Zweigelt

CARNUNTUM Gruner Veltliner Welschriesling Pinot Blanc Chardonnay Zweigelt St. Laurent

DONAULAND Gruner Veltliner Riesling Pinot Blanc Fruhroter Veltliner

WEINVIERTEL Gruner Veltliner Welschriesling Riesling Pinot Blanc Chardonnay Blauer Portugieser Zweigelt

Cheers! e.

Smaller countries are unfortunately not listed. Countries such as Greece, Malta, Cyprus, etc.

They do make good wine and I was wondering if any info for such countries is available.

= Morillon

Add Syrah

There are less than 3 ha of Sauvignon in the Wachau, but over 5 ha of Muskateller, over 20 ha of Frühroter Veltliner.

Rote_r_ Veltliner

The most prominent, to be found almost exclusively here, are missing: Zierfandler (= Spätrot) and Rotgipfler.

Add Roter Veltliner

M. P.S.: Note that spelling is "Gr_ü_ner Veltliner". (If you're in the Windows word, hold [alt] key and type 0252 on the numeric pad.). If you can't, then it's written "Gruener Veltliner".
