Everything You Want

The strong participation means that wine lovers will find the very best of every-thing that is produced in Austria. In terms of value for money, too, there are plenty of discoveries to be made. Both young and talented winemakers and modern cooperatives are among the exhibitors. A succession of five excellent vintages will also add to the pleasure of doing business with Austrian wine pro-ducers this year.

Events

Those looking for a first impression will find the open tastings at the general Austrian stand an excellent opportunity to acquaint themselves with what our country has to offer. Different grape varieties can be tasted here daily between 10am and 1pm.

Sunday, (24 March)	Grüner Veltliner from Lower Austria
Monday (24 March)	"Red Variety"
Tuesday (26 March)	Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc

The afternoons are dedicated to nobly-sweet "Prädikat" wines. Every day be-tween 1pm and 6pm the Austrian wine magazine Falstaff will present interna-tionally renowned wines and winemakers.

Germany: Export Market Number 1

Germany is the most important export partner for the wine nation Austria. Al-most 230,000 hectoliters, some 8% of the 2000 harvest, were shipped to Ger-many in 2001. Despite the fact that the volume of wines exported to our northern neighbour had shrunk slightly against 2000, the value could be increased by 2% to 23 million Euro. Apart from Grüner Veltliner & Co Austrian red wines, too, are finding more and more devotees.
