Chapter 1941： Austrian wines
"Does your wine have an export quota every year?"
"No, my wine will be stored in a private wine cellar every year, and I will take it out when it is old enough. If you like, I can give you a few boxes instead of buying it myself~"
"I mean, if you have a quota that can be sold, we can cooperate. I am preparing for the wine group."
"It turned out to be so, but Austria's production is too low, I am afraid it is difficult to supply exports~"
"It doesn't matter, you can take the boutique route."
Alois pondered for a while, "Well, let me think about it. There are many vineyards in my house."
The two clink glasses, Yang Cheng said, "Waiting for your good news, besides, maybe you can find one day to visit your manor~"
"I'll arrange it~"
Austria’s wine industry has a long history. According to textual research, vines already existed in Austria 4000 years ago.
With the changes of history, this land has changed its owners several times, but viticulture has never stopped.
Austria’s wine-producing regions are concentrated in the eastern region. The cool continental climate makes the white wines here unique, fresh and mellow, while red wines are delicate and elegant without losing fruity aromas. Therefore, Austrian wines are similar to those of the United States and Australia. The wines with strong body and strong flavor are different, they are more like French wine, sharp and firm, and with the fragrance of herbs.
This is entirely due to Austria’s superior climatic conditions, which is very suitable for grape growth. This is a landlocked country located between 47 and 48 degrees north latitude. It has a typical continental climate with large temperature differences between summer and winter, and short summers and long winters. Although its latitude location is the same as that in Burgundy, France, such as Berne and Alsace, the temperature changes here are more intense, and only hot summers and cold nights can produce delicate wines with refreshing aromas .
In addition, Austria’s beautiful environment, clean air, and good water quality can also make the wines produced with a different kind of charm.
The outstanding representative of Austrian wine is Green Feitrina. In addition, there are many varieties that can surprise lovers.
However, in 1985, Austrian wine was questioned due to the exposure of fraud, and wine exports almost stagnated.
Just as the rainbow can only be seen through wind and rain, Austrian wine has undergone a complete reorganization afterwards, and strict production standards have been formulated, so that Austria has become one of the countries with the highest production standards in the world.
Green Ferrina wine exudes the aroma of grass, fresh and aromatic, and the lively acidity is peppery. Green Ferrina is often compared to Sauvignon Blanc because of its pepper and grass-like plant aromas.
With the improvement of its quality, the Green Faitlina wines are expensive, and the flavors are more complex and changeable, like a Burgundy Chardonnay wine matured in oak barrels.
Another big variety is Zweig, which is also the largest red grape variety in Austria.
Zweig is light-bodied and does not require oak barrel maturation. It is similar to Grenache or Camry, because it will bring a slight bitterness when it is harvested in cool weather.
The price of most Zweig wines is not high. After high-quality Zweig wines are aged, the rich cherry aroma will bring a touch of oak barrels.
And Zweig wine is worth savoring slowly, even for an hour, because it may be bitter or sour at first, but then it is full-bodied and round and rich in fruit, with black cherry and raspberry flavors.
Then there is Blue Franck, which is also the most suitable Austrian red wine for aging. The aged red wine has moderate acidity and rich tannins. When young, the tannins are usually a little rough, but as the aging time increases, the tannins It will become soft and round, with a sweet and fragrant taste.
Blue Franck exudes aromas of blackberries, sour cherries and elegant citrus spices. The palate can clearly feel strong tannins.
But what impressed Yang Cheng the most was Saint Laurent. He had drunk many Austrian wines. Only Saint Laurent made him remember the name. After all, a well-known luxury makeup brand is the name.
Although its planting area only accounts for 2%, the wines made by Saint Laurent are surprisingly similar in taste to Pinot Noir, but in fact they are not related, although as the demand increases, Saint Laurent grapes become It is becoming more and more in demand and prices are starting to rise, but it is a great substitute for Pinot Noir.
However, as Alois said, Austria's wine production is too low, which is also related to that period of history.
Today, Austria is the kingdom of wine, and the wine trademark of MadeinAustria is even more sought after by people all over the world, but who knows that the output of Austria is not always so low.
Now Austria uses the most stringent wine laws in the world to supervise the wine production process. Every bottle of Austrian wine is marked with its national inspection number on the label, and red-white-red pattern seals are used to verify the quality of the wine. It can be said that the quality of the wine produced here is guaranteed by the reputation of the Austrian country.
Had it not been for the shocking scandal of Austrian grapes in the last century, this might not have been possible.
As early as the 5th century AD, the Romans began to revitalize the development of grape varieties in Austria, but it was destroyed by the invasion of the Bavarians and Avars.
Beginning in 788 AD, Charles the Great formulated new regulations to rebuild vineyards and introduce new grape varieties. Afterwards, Austrian vineyards were mainly managed by churches and encouraged to plant together. In the middle of the 14th century, Rudolf IV introduced a wine tax system , Vienna became a wine trading center, and the wine business flourished in the 16th century, but taxes were very heavy and complicated in the subsequent 30-year war and later in the 17th century.
By the eighteenth century, when the enlightened queen Maria Theresia was in power, farmers’ taxes were reduced.
Her son, Joseph II, issued an exemption order in 1784, allowing wine farmers to sell new wines made in those years at home, and enjoy alcohol tax exemption.
As a result, wine estates have sprung up all over Austria. This decree has continued to this day, and as a result the new wine hotel was born. Today, Austrian people are very willing to spend their leisure time in the new wine hotel.
During the Second World War, Austria was annexed by Germany, and the wine industry was devastated. After the war, only simple white wines were produced here. After the war, Austrian wines were of poor quality and their market share in the bulk market continued to decrease. Under pressure, some producers have begun to speculate, make a lot of counterfeiting, and increase wine production through artificial means.
After World War II, Austria once became the world's third largest wine producer, mainly exporting bulk wine for blending with Germany or other countries.
However, the good times did not last long. The Austrians quickly tasted the consequences of this crazy export of cheap bulk wine. In the 20th century, Austrian wines were exported to Germany in large quantities. These wines were light and acidic and were disgusting.
Some unscrupulous vendors have found that adding the compound diethylene glycol to wine will make wine popular. This toxic compound used as an antifreeze agent can increase the sweetness and body of wine.
But this kind of bad behavior was discovered during routine tax inspections and was reported by the media at the time that “Austrian wine was mixed with antifreeze”, which was the famous “1985 wine scandal.
The outbreak of the scandal caused many countries to boycott the import of Austrian wine. This incident seriously affected the reputation of Austrian wine and led to a sharp decline in its wine exports.
The scandal caused Austria to reflect on its own wines. A series of strict new regulations were introduced. The wineries began to produce more red wines and dry white wines. The middlemen also encouraged the wineries to produce more wines that could express the local climate.
Since then, Austrian wine has begun to transform, a large number of bulk wine producers have closed down, and people have begun to pay attention to small producers and emerging producers who value wine quality. The wine law has been revised and the legal production area has been strictly limited. It is necessary to know Austrian grapes. The area of the park is half the size of Germany, but the output of wine is only a quarter of that of German wine. Austria has become the most closely regulated wine industry in Europe and even the world.
After decades of development and driven by the pursuit of high-quality wines, Austrian wines have overcome obstacles and finally become high-quality wine producing countries in the new century. It is a comeback. Now, the overall quality of Austrian wines is better than any in history. Time is better.
Have better prospects for development The Austrians are also happy to add some entertainment on the basis of wine. They choose a wine queen every year, and each of the 16 wine regions in Austria will send it to each other To be a candidate for a princess, the candidate must come from a family of wine producers or have a complete professional education in viticulture, oenology, etc.; must be at least 18 years old, unmarried, and must not enter into a marriage contract within one year of being elected the queen.
The wine queens and princesses were mainly the wine spokespersons and wine figures of Austria at the time. They participated in various wine-related activities and contributed to wine. However, some girls became phoenixes because of this. To some extent, it is also A beauty contest.
However, Yang Cheng couldn't appreciate it. Austrians and Germans are almost the same, with almost no difference, especially women, with a large skeleton and tough facial features, which do not conform to the feminine style that Asians like.
Just look at the maids in Vaduz Castle. They are all carefully selected by the royal family. They look like a beauty pageant, but if you take one out, they will be looked at differently. They are all beautiful women. of.
But in Yang Cheng's eyes, that's the case. The skin is not so white, the eyes are not blue enough, and the body is more ‘strong’, which is not his food anyway.
