  • Austrian Wine Report
    ANNEX 5 REPORT: PRODUCTION AND CONTROL OF WINE IN AUSTRIA Lehr- und Forschungszentrum für Wein- und Obstbau (Education and Research Institute for Viticulture and Pomology) A-3400 Klosterneuburg Wiener Strasse 74 written by HR Dr. Reinhard EDER [email protected] Klosterneuburg, September 2010 Wine country Austria Austria is a small wine country with around 50.000 hectares (ha) of viticulture, which account for around 1 % of vineyards in Europe (5.5 million hectare) respectively 0.7 % of the vineyard area of the world (7.4 million ha). From these vineyards around 250 million litre of wine are produced annually, which correspond to around 1.3 % of wine production in Europe and around 1 % of the world wide production of wine. Interestingly the consumption of wine in Austria is equal to the production of wine, nevertheless around 80 million litre of mainly red wine are imported and around 80 million litres, mainly white wine, are exported. The biggest wine importing countries are Italy (around 60 %), Spain (around 15 %), new world countries (Australia, Chile ... around 10 %), France (around 5 %) and others. The most important export markets are Germany (around 50 %), Scandinavian countries (Norway, Sweden ... around 10 %), USA (around 10 %), eastern European countries (Russia, Czech Republic ... around 10 %) and others like Japan, Great Britain and Switzerland. The wine consumption per head is quite stable over the years and lays around 30 litre per year. Contrary to the amount the place of wine consumption has changed within the last years strongly with an increase of consumption at home (around 45 %) at the expense of outdoor consumption in restaurants, festivals, markets and so on (around 50 %).

  • Addendum Regarding: the 2021 Certified Specialist of Wine Study Guide, As Published by the Society of Wine Educators
    Addendum regarding: The 2021 Certified Specialist of Wine Study Guide, as published by the Society of Wine Educators This document outlines the substantive changes to the 2021 Study Guide as compared to the 2020 version of the CSW Study Guide. All page numbers reference the 2020 version. Note: Many of our regional wine maps have been updated. The new maps are available on SWE’s blog, Wine, Wit, and Wisdom, at the following address: http://winewitandwisdomswe.com/wine-spirits- maps/swe-wine-maps-2021/ Page 15: The third paragraph under the heading “TCA” has been updated to read as follows: TCA is highly persistent. If it saturates any part of a winery’s environment (barrels, cardboard boxes, or even the winery’s walls), it can even be transferred into wines that are sealed with screw caps or artificial corks. Thankfully, recent technological breakthroughs have shown promise, and some cork producers are predicting the eradication of cork taint in the next few years. In the meantime, while most industry experts agree that the incidence of cork taint has fallen in recent years, an exact figure has not been agreed upon. Current reports of cork taint vary widely, from a low of 1% to a high of 8% of the bottles produced each year. Page 16: the entry for Geranium fault was updated to read as follows: Geranium fault: An odor resembling crushed geranium leaves (which can be overwhelming); normally caused by the metabolism of sorbic acid (derived from potassium sorbate, a preservative) via lactic acid bacteria (as used for malolactic fermentation) Page 22: the entry under the heading “clone” was updated to read as follows: In commercial viticulture, virtually all grape varieties are reproduced via vegetative propagation.
