1998 Asparagus Wine Selection
April 30, 1998 - Asparagus and wine, both flourish masterfully in Austria, and many Austrian white wines taste magnificently as an accompaniment to asparagus dishes.

Once a year, in time and before the asparagus season, the Austrian wine economy requests representatives of asparagus farmers and vintners, gastronomy and the specialist press, to present collectively under the patronage of the Chaine des Rôtisseurs, and from a great number of submissions, the Austrian white wines that harmonize in an especially fine way with asparagus dishes.
On March 17, the asparagus and wine jury at the Hotel am Sachsengang selected fifty wines from 350 candidates for the "1998 Asparagus Wine Selection."
The sources of all asparagus wines and further information can be obtained from the Team of the Austrian Wine Marketing Board.
