A creamy, ripe wine, with some vanilla aromas and flavors of plums and ripe peaches. In Styria, Chardonnay is also known, confusingly, as Morillon. Imported by Austrian Specialty Wine Company.

This is something of a curiosity, a Grüner Veltliner which has been matured in wood. It gives the wine extra spiciness and intensity of flavor, although some of the pepper character of the grape is lost in the process. This wine is big, ripe and full. Imported by Austrian Specialty Wine Company.

The term “Halbtrocken” means that the wine is semi-sweet. This increases the spicy character of the Gewürztraminer, but along the way some of the intensity is lost. Flavors of lychees make it powerful, but the sweetness makes this a simple wine. Imported by Austrian Specialty Wine Company.

A clean, fresh wine, with perfumed fruit. It is spicy, aromatic and soft, with layers of nutmeg and finishes with just a touch of sweetness. This is a pleasant, easy apéritif wine. Although it does not carry a vintage, the wine is from the 2003 vintage. Imported by Austrian Specialty Wine Company.

From the southern Austrian region of Styria, this wine is marked by a touch of spice, and flavors of almonds and white fruits. It is clean, but quite fat, a sign of the warm vintage. Imported by Austrian Specialty Wine Company.

A clean, fruity wine, with flavors of red currants, green plums and a good layer of fresh acidity. This is attractive and easy-drinking, showing just what can be done with Welschriesling. Imported by Austrian Specialty Wine Company.

The Gelber Muskateller has a long tradition in Styria, where this wine comes from. It is a great apéritif drink, with its racy, fragrant character, and ripe, heady perfumes. This example is well-balanced, with a good touch of acidity to keep it fresh. Imported by Austrian Specialty Wine Company.

Smells much like a bowl of freshly made fruit cocktail: there’s apple, pear, citrus and kiwi. Spicy melon with hints of green herbs control the palate, while the mouthfeel is rich and chewy. Quite heavy and sweet, but good if you aren’t looking for a lot of zest. Imported by Vignaioli.

The fruit on the nose is reminiscent of hedgerow fruits—blackberries, alpine strawberries, plums and blueberries. The palate is very green with high acidity and light, fresh fruit flavors. The final impression is of a fresh, crisp wine, with just a touch of pepper.
