Thank you! Let me reciprocate that appreciation for the work you do on yours, though I have to confess, I do wish you would've worn a full-on kimono for the sake review. 😵 Cheers!

I have a Zweigelt Barrique in the cabinet. I think I'll use this occasion to open the bottle. :) Thanks for this cast as always.

[@TheUnknownWinecaster]

Excellent! I hope you enjoy and please let me know how it was. Cheers!

[@matthiaskleinert3141]

The Unknown Winecaster It was a very agreeable, quite fruity bottle of red that didn't offer a lot of depth but went very well with food. It's what you'd expect to drink in one of the many so called "Heckenwirtschaften" in Vienna. I didnt really taste the influence of Barrique barrel maturation though. Sorry but my English wine vocabulary is still in a state of development. ;)

Where are the Muskateller, Sauvignon Blancs, Rote Traminer, Blauburgunder.....?

[@TheUnknownWinecaster]

Hello. Because of considerations of space and time, I usually confine myself to the 7 or so most planted grapes in a country. Pinot Noir takes up about 1% of Austrian land under vine and Muscat Blanc a bit less, making them the 14th and 17th most planted grapes respectively. Red Traminer is even less heavily planted. Sauvignon Blanc does a bit better (#11), and I mention it as a regional specialty of Steiermark at the end of Part II. Thank you for mentioning these grapes, though, as I may treat them in a future cast on specific regions of Austria. Cheers!
