Austria is a wine country in central Europe, known for precise still whites and increasingly serious reds. WineFortune tracks 3 wines from 3 producers here, across 2 regions — Burgenland and Niederosterreich — with 1 wine currently listed in the WineFortune shop.
The country's signature grape is Grüner Veltliner, joined by Riesling among the whites, while Blaufränkisch and Zweigelt lead the reds. All the Austrian wines WineFortune tracks are still wines, carrying the national designations Qualitätswein and Prädikatswein under Austrian wine law. The climate is cool continental, warmed in the east by Pannonian influence around Burgenland's lakes and slopes.
On the critics' side, the aggregate stands at 96 on the 100-point scale, from a single review, with a median drinking window from 2022 to 2040. The WineFortune index median per 75 cl bottle is built from WineFortune's own trades and listings over 90 days; no Austrian wine is currently indexed, so no index median is shown for this page yet.
