Austrian wines are mostly dry white wines (often made from the Grüner Veltliner grape), though some sweeter white wines (such as dessert wines made around the Neusiedler See) are also produced. About 30% of the wines are red, made from Blaufränkisch (also known as Lemberger, or as Kékfrankos in neighbouring Hungary), Pinot noir and locally bred varieties such as Zweigelt. Four thousand years of winemaking history counted for little after the "antifreeze scandal" of 1985, when it was revealed that some wine brokers had been adulterating their wines with diethylene glycol. The scandal destroyed the market for Austrian wine and compelled Austria to tackle low standards of bulk wine production, and reposition itself as a producer of quality wines. The country is also home to Riedel, makers of some of the most expensive wine glasses in the world. Some of the best producers of Austria include Weingut F.X. Pichler and Weingut Franz Hirtzberger, Weingut Hutter, Weingut Eigl and Wellanschitz.
Austria (i/ˈɒstriə, ˈɔː-/;German:Österreich[ˈøːstɐˌʁaɪç]), officially the Republic of Austria (German:Republik Österreich, listen), is a federal republic and a landlocked country of over 8.66million people in Central Europe. It is bordered by the Czech Republic and Germany to the north, Hungary and Slovakia to the east, Slovenia and Italy to the south, and Switzerland and Liechtenstein to the west. The territory of Austria covers 83,879 square kilometres (32,386sqmi). Austria's terrain is highly mountainous, lying within the Alps; only 32% of the country is below 500 metres (1,640ft), and its highest point is 3,798 metres (12,461ft). The majority of the population speak local Bavarian dialects of German as their native language, and Austrian German in its standard form is the country's official language. Other local official languages are Hungarian, Burgenland Croatian, and Slovene.
Fucking (German pronunciation:[ˈfʊkɪŋ], rhymes with "booking") is an Austrianvillage in the municipality of Tarsdorf, in the Innviertel region of western Upper Austria. The village is 33 kilometres (21mi) north of Salzburg, 4 kilometres (2.5mi) east of the German border.
Despite having a population of only 104 in 2005, the village has become famous for its unusual place name in the English-speaking world. Its road signs are a popular visitor attraction, and they were often stolen by souvenir-hunting tourists until 2005, when the signs were modified to be theft-resistant.
Etymology
It is believed that the settlement was founded in the 6th century by Focko, a Bavarian nobleman. The existence of the village was documented for the first time in 1070, and historical records show that some twenty years later, the lord was Adalpertus de Fucingin. The spelling of the name has evolved over the years; it is first recorded in historical sources with the spelling as Vucchingen in 1070, Fukching in 1303,Fugkhing in 1532, and in the modern spelling Fucking in the 18th century, which is pronounced with the vowel oo as in book. The ending -ing is an old Germanic suffix indicating the people belonging to the root word to which it is attached, thus Fucking means "(place of) Focko's people."
After a cancelled British Government charter, she went into service with the Hamburg America Line on 1 May 1858 on the Hamburg-New York route.
Tragedy at sea
On 1 September 1858, SS Austria captained by F. A. Heydtmann sailed from Hamburg on her third voyage to New York City. At approximately 12:00, on 13 September, at coordinates 45°01′N41°30′W / 45.017°N 41.500°W / 45.017; -41.500, a decision was made to fumigatesteerage by dipping a red-hot chain into a bucket of tar; the chain became too hot for the boatswain to hold, and it was dropped onto the deck, which immediately burst into flames; although the ship was traveling at only half speed it was impossible to stop the engines as the engine crew had become asphyxiated. When the helmsman abandoned the wheel, the ship swung into the wind, spreading the flames down the length of the ship, racing through the mahogany veneer and varnished bulkheads, as passengers jumped into the sea. The passing barque, Maurice of France rescued most of the survivors, and the Catarina of Norway picked up more the next morning. As the blackened hulk was left to sink, all but 65 of 538 passengers were lost.
Wine World's BEST KEPT SECRET: Wachau Region (Austria)
Austria produces wines of exceptional quality, and, while each of its 17 regions offers great wines, be it white wine, red wine, sparkling wine or dessert wine - Wachau is by far one of my favorite ones. Wachau region is strongly associated with its Gruner Veltiner and Riesling wines and its unique wine classification system - Steinfeder, Federspiel and Smaragd wines. And although there are so many quality producers in the region, who offer age-worthy white wines that rival those of Burgundy, Wachau is still one of the wine world's best kept secrets.

And although there are so many quality producers in the region, who offer age-worthy white wines that rival those of Burgundy, Wachau is still one of the wine world's best kept secrets.

Grüner Veltliner is a high-quality Austrian white wine grape variety that has gained a cult following, and I am definitely amongst those who enjoy it a lot. Although it is lesser known than such international grape varieties as Chardonnay, Riesling or Sauvignon Blanc, it certainly is a mighty grape varieties you should consider trying.

Though a small country, Austria’s wines are now highly prized around the world. We’ll discuss the major grape varieties and regions, explain why the wine community has fallen in love with Austria, and share some practical advice on food pairings. It’s time to change up your usual wine routine; our Austrian wine section is growing and we want to help you navigate it!
Austrian wines are mostly dry white wines (often made from the Grüner Veltliner grape), though some sweeter white wines (such as dessert wines made around the Neusiedler See) are also produced. About 30% of the wines are red, made from Blaufränkisch (also known as Lemberger, or as Kékfrankos in neighbouring Hungary), Pinot noir and locally bred varieties such as Zweigelt. Four thousand years of winemaking history counted for little after the "antifreeze scandal" of 1985, when it was revealed that some wine brokers had been adulterating their wines with diethylene glycol. The scandal destroyed the market for Austrian wine and compelled Austria to tackle low standards of bulk wine production, and reposition itself as a producer of quality wines. The country is also home to Riedel, makers of some of the most expensive wine glasses in the world. Some of the best producers of Austria include Weingut F.X. Pichler and Weingut Franz Hirtzberger, Weingut Hutter, Weingut Eigl and Wellanschitz.
