Wine & Culinary: Great Soloists; Perfect Companions
Austrian wines have many faces. Because of their impressive diversity – the range of varieties and expressions - they can be stimulating companions that turn a menu into a perfect experience. Or they can perform as profound soloists, glasses-full of multi-layered structure and finesse that inspire meditative pleasures.
The types of wine are extensive and complete: there are sparkling; and there are whites from light to full-bodied; plus there are racy, fruit-accented rosés; and reds that are elegant, rich and multi-layered; and of course, there are smooth, noble sweet treasures. No matter the taste, no matter the preference, there is a wine to bring full pleasure and satisfaction.
This is particularly true when it comes to matching the right wine with the right food. Whether traditional home cooking or the refined compositions of Haute Cuisine – there is an Austrian wine to deliver the delicious highlight of the meal. And "exotic" certainly is no obstacle – in fact, it is ideal! – especially when reflected through the wonderful harmony of Austrian wines and Asian cuisine, everything from Sushi to Dim Sum to Thai curries.
