    1. Vineyard areas and areas under vine by grape variety Austrian Wine statistics report 1.2 Vineyard areas and areas under vine by grape variety 2 The data in this section is based on the 2015 Survey of Area under Vine, as well as feedback from the wine-producing federal states of Niederösterreich (Lower Austria), Burgenland, Steiermark (Styria) and Wien (Vienna). The main source of data for the 2015 Survey of Area under Vine was the Wein-ONLINE system operated by the Federal Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, Environment and Water Management (BMNT). Data from the remaining federal states was collected by means of a questionnaire (primary data collection). Information relating to the (approved) nurseries was provided by the Burgenland and Lower Austrian Chambers of Agriculture and the Styrian state government (Agricultural Research Centre). According to the 2015 Survey of Area under Vine, Austria’s vineyards occupied 45,574 hectares. The planted vineyard area was 45,439 ha, which corresponds to 94 ha less (or a 0.2% decrease) in comparison to the 2009 Survey of Area under Vine. The long-running trend that suggested a shift away from white wine and towards red was quashed by the 2015 Survey of Area under Vine. While the white wine vineyard area increased by 2.3% to 30,502 ha compared to 2009, the red wine area decreased by 4.9% to 14,937 ha. Figure 1 shows the evolution of Austrian viticulture after the Second World War. The largest area under vine was recorded in 1980 at 59,432 ha. From 1980 onwards, the white wine vineyard area has continuously decreased, while the red wine vineyard area has expanded.

  • Vine Behaviour and Wine Composition in Ltalian Riesling Grapes As Iniluenced by Differential Cropping Levels
    Vitis 18, 122-126 (1979) Institute of Viticulture and Enology, Budapest, Hungary Vine behaviour and wine composition in ltalian Riesling grapes as iniluenced by differential cropping levels by V. R. BALASUBRAHMANYAM, J. EIFERT and L. DIOFASI Das Verhalten der Rebe und die Zusammensetzung des Weines unter dem Einfluß abgestufter Ertragsmengen beim Welschriesling Z u s a mm e n f a s s u n g . - Der Einfluß der Knospenzahl auf den Traubenertrag sowie auf die Most- und Weinqualität der Sorte Welschriesling wurde untersucht. Mit zu­ nehmender Knospenzahl nahm das durchschnittliche Traubengewicht ab, und das Zucker/ Säure-Verhältnis war verringert. Unter den vorliegenden Versuchsbedingungen wurden bei 72 an der Rebe belassenen Knospen - eine durchaus noch tragbare Stockbelastung - wirtschaftlich praktikable Ernten von guter Qualität erzielt. lntroduction In a previous paper (3) the authors have reported the influence of the crop borne by the vine on the accumulation and storage of nutrient reserves in the canes. The present paper deals with the effect of the cropping level on yield and quality of the crop. Bunch number and yield increase linearly with increasing number of buds re­ tained at pruning within certain limits. Changes in the pruning level will alter potential crop accordingly (2). This is supported by the observations of KrnALY (6), MARTIN and TALOJ (7). SueeJAH and RAo (12) observed that crop-regulated Anab-e­ Shahi vines yielded higher crops than the vines pruned to a maximum number of buds. RANGELOV (9) obtained the highest yields from Italian Riesling vines pruned to 32 and 36 buds over the range 20 to 88 buds per vine studied.
