Austria: Weinviertel dac adds Reserve with 2009 Vintage

(AWMB, March 2010) - With the Weinviertel dac Reserve, the Weinviertel joins the rest of Austria’s two-tiered DACs. In 2003, the Weinviertel became the first Austrian wine-growing area to market typical wines of origin under the specific name of the region. This gave the Weinviertel dac its pioneering role for wines with a clear identity and a typical taste profile. So far, six other regions - Mittelburgenland, Traisental, Kremstal, Kamptal, Leithaberg and Eisenberg - have joined this appellation system as well. [ press release ]
