This does not mean that Austria is a new wine country. There have been vines in Austria since Roman times. The national grape Grüner Veltliner is the pride of Austria. Deliciously fresh wines with spice are made from it. A lot of white wine is also made from Riesling. Red wines are made from the well-known red grape varieties. Do you want an Austrian red wine? Then taste wine made from Zweigelt.
