Welcome to this exciting journey through the remarkable red wines of Germany and Austria. Tonight, we will explore the nuances, complexity, and unique characteristics of these two wine regions, often known for their white wines but also home to a rich treasure of red wines.
German red wines, especially those from regions like Pfalz and Baden, have increasingly garnered attention for their elegance and refinement. These wines distinguish themselves by blending traditional German virtues with bold innovations, often delivering a surprising complexity and balance. There are some interesting native grape varieties such as Dornfelder and Sankt Laurent to be tasted here. But also, international grape varieties such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc are gaining more significance.
On the other hand, Austria has established itself as one of Europe’s leading producers of quality wines, and its red wines are no exception. Wines from regions like Burgenland and Niederösterreich are known for their unique character, reflecting the diverse terroir and local grape varieties. Here, Blauer Zweigelt and Blaufraenkisch play a dominant role.
Our tasting tonight will include a selection of red wines from Germany and Austria. We will explore the aromas, tasting notes, and structures that characterize these wines, and we encourage you to enjoy the journey through your senses.
So let’s unwind, take our seats, and experience the best that German and Austrian red wines have to offer. Cheers and enjoy!
