Although archeological evidence dates grape growing in Austria back thousands of years, Austrian winemaking began to flourish in the Roman era around the same time as that of the German winemaking. Today, the indigenous Grüner Veltliner and beloved Riesling grapes are proving to be quite successful, and downright delicious, too. In this class, we'll taste a selection of six wines from the eastern portion of the country while discussing Austrian wine law, notable grape varieties, classic wine producing regions, and more.
