Austria

Have you tried Austrian wine yet? For many wine critics, this is Europe’s real hidden gem of winemaking, with a focus on small family-owned wineries and native grapes that thrive in the cooler climates of the country’s Alpine areas.

The success of Austria as a wine producer should come as no surprise, given that it shares borders with top-producing countries such as Italy and Germany. If you’re a fan of wines from either of these countries and fancy sampling something a little different, why not branch out and try an Austrian wine for a change?
