Instead of a classic tasting, you could approach the terroirs of Styrian vineyard wines in a playful way and find out whether you tend more towards limestone, opok, slate, gravel, sand or volcanic rock in relation to a certain grape variety.
Overall, around 60 Styrian winemakers their terroir-influenced vineyard wines in the Kursalon in Vienna’s Stadtpark. The focus was on the Years 2020 to 2022complemented by matured Crescents up to 2004 back.
In Styria, we recognized the value of our vineyards early on and gained extensive knowledge about our soils. I am very pleased that we were able to convey the importance of our soils to visitors to the Styrian vineyard wine tasting in a completely new way. Styria has great potential in many ways, which we want to exploit even more intensively, especially with our main grape variety, Sauvignon Blanc.
