    Viennese cuisine is world-renowned for its pure delights – in every sense of the word. Whether traditional Schnitzel, Tafelspitz (boiled beef fillet) or Apple Strudel, many local delicacies are not as Viennese as one might think. Looking back into history, immigrants from parts of the old Habsburg empire – such as Hungary, Bohemia and Moravia – brought their recipes and ideas to the heart of the Danube region. Over decades, many different irresistible culinary influences came into being. Let yourself be inspired by our creative dishes and embark with us on a journey that will take your taste buds from yesteryear’s Habsburg monarchy to today’s modern age – whether typical dishes or seasonal specialties. With finesse and passion, the team of the Danube Tower cuisine places great importance on reinterpreting century-old tradition with contemporary culinary delights and regionality. This is what we define as the art of indulgence. Next to St. Stephen’s Cathedral, Schönbrunn Palace and the Giant Ferris Wheel, the Danube Tower ranks among Vienna’s most well-known and most spectacular landmarks. The 252-metre high tower was opened concurrently with the International Garden Show in 1964. It is Austria’s tallest building structure and a tangible reminiscence of the optimism and pioneering spirit of the 1960s. D. Hofbauer A. Widgruber P.

  • Strategic Development of Varietal Vineyards in the Czech Republic
    ACTA UNIVERSITATIS AGRICULTURAE ET SILVICULTURAE MENDELIANAE BRUNENSIS Volume LX 43 Number 2, 2012 STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENT OF VARIETAL VINEYARDS IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC J. Sedlo, P. Tomšík Received: November 30, 2011 Abstract SEDLO, J., TOMŠÍK, P.: Strategic development of varietal vineyards in the Czech Republic. Acta univ. agric. et silvic. Mendel. Brun., 2012, LX, No. 2, pp. 325–334 The paper describes strategic changes in the structure of grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) varieties grown in the Czech Republic. In 2004–2005, (i.e. a er the admission of the Czech Republic into the EU) expenditures associated with restructuralisation and transformation of vineyards amounted for CZK 25,423 thous. The authors examine the development taking place in this domain within the last 50 years (i.e. from 1960 to 2010) and pay detailed attention to the period of 1989 to 2010. The paper analyses reasons of these changes and tries to describe the future development expected a er 2010. The current production potential of the Czech Republic are 19,633.45 hectares of vineyards. For the time being, there are in average 1.07 wine growers per hectare of vineyards. As compared with 1960, the acreage of vineyards has doubled up and the number of the most frequent varieties has also increased. Within the period of 1989–1990, four varieties (i.e. Müller Thurgau, Green Veltliner, Italian Riesling and Sankt Laurent) occupied more than 60 % of the total vineyards area in the Czech Republic, whereas at present there are altogether 8 varieties (Müller Thurgau, Green Veltliner, Italian Riesling, Rhein Riesling, Sauvignon, Sankt Laurent, Blaufrankish, and Zweigeltrebe) at the nearly the same acreage.

He has been in charge of the winery since 2011, following the footsteps of his father, grandfather and great grandfather. Mathias gained his experience by working with Anton Bauer in the Wagram and through internships at Roman Pfaffl and Julius Klein. Fallstaff Magazine awarded his Grüner Veltliner DAC Classic 2016 the prestigious Grüner Veltliner Grand Prix 2017 prize. The vineyard is small, with only 42 acres and a total production of 80,000 bottles. The vast Weinviertel stretches from the Danube valley in the south to the Czech border in the north, and from the Manhartsberg in the west to the border of Slovakia in the east. The Weinviertel is mostly known for Grüner Veltliner and the first DAC in Austria. If the label reads Weinviertel DAC it is always 100% Grüner Veltliner. A highlight of the western part of Weinviertel is the area around the historic wine- trading town of Retz, with its labyrinth of underground wine cellars.

  • Changes in the Aromatic Compounds Content in the Muscat Wines As a Result of the Application of Ultrasound During Pre-Fermentative Maceration
    foods Article Changes in the Aromatic Compounds Content in the Muscat Wines as a Result of the Application of Ultrasound during Pre-Fermentative Maceration Fátima Aragón-García, Ana Ruíz-Rodríguez * and Miguel Palma Department of Analytical Chemistry, Center of Agri-Food and Wine Research (IVAGRO), Faculty of Science, University of Cadiz, 11510 Puerto Real, Spain; [email protected] (F.A.-G.); [email protected] (M.P.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: This research focuses on the aromatic composition of Muscat of Alexandria wines after the application of ultrasound for 40 or 80 min during a 4 h pre-fermentative maceration process. Two methods of ultrasound application were compared in this study: probe ultrasound and bath ultrasound, for periods of 10–20 min per hour. Increases of more than 200% were obtained for some of the compounds from the skins, such as two of its terpenes, citronellol and nerol. On the other hand, increases in alcohol and ester values were registered with the application of ultrasound for 40 min. However, a significant decrease in these compounds was recorded when the ultrasound process was extended. In fact, when ultrasound was applied for 80 min, content values were even lower than those registered for the wine produced without the application of ultrasound. At the sensory level, the effect resulting from probe and bath ultrasound application for different times were compared, where most of the judges successfully discriminated the wines resulting from the application of ultrasound bath. According to data, the wines resulting from the application of ultrasound bath for Citation: Aragón-García, F.; 80 min presented the most significant differences, which affected the aromas of white fruit, tropical Ruíz-Rodríguez, A.; Palma, M.

He has been in charge of the winery since 2011, following the footsteps of his father, grandfather and great grandfather. Mathias gained his experience by working with Anton Bauer in the Wagram and through internships at Roman Pfaffl and Julius Klein. Fallstaff Magazine awarded his Grüner Veltliner DAC Classic 2016 the prestigious Grüner Veltliner Grand Prix 2017 prize. The vineyard is small, with only 42 acres and a total production of 80,000 bottles. The vast Weinviertel stretches from the Danube valley in the south to the Czech border in the north, and from the Manhartsberg in the west to the border of Slovakia in the east. The Weinviertel is mostly known for Grüner Veltliner and the first DAC in Austria. If the label reads Weinviertel DAC it is always 100% Grüner Veltliner. A highlight of the western part of Weinviertel is the area around the historic wine- trading town of Retz, with its labyrinth of underground wine cellars. Liter Grüner Veltliner 2018 Almost Sauvignon Blanc like, this Grüner has a very aromatic nose, some citrus, classic white pepper and a clean fresh finish. Alc: 12 % acidity: 5.1 g/l residual sugar 2.1 g/l Grüner Veltliner DAC Klassik Weinviertel 2018 Peppery and spicy, yellow apples, very slender and elegant, a little bit of grapefruit, unbelievably fresh and animating.
