Tasting Notes

Gemischter Satz originated as a co-fermented field blend produced from vineyards around Vienna, but the much-beloved style has spread throughout Austria over the years. Neumeister’s delightfully aromatic version is built around 40-year-old Gelber Muskateller, with fellow early-ripening varieties Welschriesling, Müller-Thurgau, and Scheurebe rounding out the blend.

Staff Pick Notes

In the hills of Austria, just outside of Vienna, you may not find a lonely goatherd, but you will find some of the country's most unique and beautiful wines. A Gemischter Satz, meaning "mixed set," is exactly that. In this case, a blend of seven different varietals grown and vinified together in stainless steel. Some of the marquis grapes like Riesling and Gewurztraminer account for its floral and spice notes, but the rest of the cast adds layers of complexity to this dry wine that can be contemplated or quaffed with equal pleasure. Satz is easily paired with the cuisine of most seasons, but I enjoyed mine with a fusilli carbonara. Austrian wine fans, the hills are alive indeed!

The variety is cultivated all over the world, but the best examples tend to come from Alsace: these are full-bodied wines with a golden color. The pink-skinned Gewürztraminer does best in cooler climates,...

Austria

Austrian wine is finally getting the attention it deserves. Ever since the late 1980s, Austrian winemaking has taken a much more rigorous approach to quality control, and returned to its roots in organic viticulture.

Deservedly famous for its white wines (Grüner Veltliners especially), Austria makes a number of delicious red wines as well.The most widely grown red grape in Austria is...
