Its first taste is slightly chemical, thoughmild and innocuous, but there are no tastes after that, other than the sensation of fluid having been in the mouth. It was a major disappointment.

It's been under-appreciated for far too long! It's been great to see some G-V popping up on restaurant menus. I think 2009 will be the year of Austrian wine.

Worked a treat. I thought that there was some cork spoilage when I opened it first but thankfully the wine was untarnished and christmas day was saved!

The whites in the same range, particularly the Riesling, are at least as good in comparison to many of the German whites within the same price bracket. Yeah, good wine, especially with food.

And the Austrian authorities only found out when some producers tried to claim tax back on the anti-freeze.

Haven’t tried Austrian Pinot – any good?

Something about anti-freeze to preserve their wines? Perfectly safe now of course, and man, they are producing some wonderful stuff. Ironic that I've just finished off a bottle of Austrian Pinot Noir. Austria had some bad press years ago. Something about anti-freeze to preserve their wines?
