Austria

Austria may be small, but its wines punch far above their weight. Best known for Grüner Veltliner — a crisp, peppery white that pairs effortlessly with food — Austria also excels in Riesling, Blaufränkisch, and elegant red blends. With vineyards climbing alpine slopes and nestled along the Danube, Austrian winemakers balance tradition with innovation, crafting wines that are precise, food-friendly, and increasingly sought after by collectors. Whether you’re looking for a refreshing white or a structured red with cellaring potential, Austrian wines bring sophistication with a distinctive edge.

Frequently asked questions

Grüner Veltliner is Austria’s signature variety. Expect citrus, green apple, white pepper, and a mineral-driven finish. It’s incredibly versatile at the table, pairing with everything from seafood to spicy Asian dishes.

While German Riesling often shows sweeter expressions, Austrian Riesling is typically dry, with vibrant acidity, stone fruit flavours, and a firm mineral backbone. It’s a sommelier favourite for its precision.

Blaufränkisch leads the way, producing spicy, medium-bodied reds with cherry and earthy notes. Zweigelt and St. Laurent also shine, offering great value and distinctive character.

Wachau, Kamptal, and Kremstal are famous for Grüner and Riesling. Burgenland produces Austria’s best reds, while Styria is known for Sauvignon Blanc and crisp whites.

Yes. Top Rieslings and Blaufränkisch can age gracefully for 10–15 years, developing complexity while retaining freshness. Grüner Veltliner also evolves beautifully with time.

Their high acidity and balance make them perfect with a wide range of dishes — from schnitzel and charcuterie to spicy curries and fresh seafood. Few wines handle tricky pairings as well as Grüner Veltliner.

Not at all. Everyday Grüner and Zweigelt offer excellent value, while premium single-vineyard wines rival Burgundy and Germany but often at more approachable prices.
