(AWMB/December 2009) - Over the past year, Austrian wine was very successful despite the economic crisis. In fact, the growth that defined the previous few years continued in 2009, especially in the food retail trade. Market shares increased further, culminating in an excellent result. While the total of exported Austrian goods decreased by almost a sixth in 2009, Austrian wine exports rose throughout the year, gaining market share especially in shrinking markets - even though, in general, lower priced products were sold in all price segments. > >
(AWMB/January 2010) - It’s almost eerie – the 9 series! The legendary Austrian “9er” vintages certainly live up to their reputation even in the new millennium. It began in 1959 – the vintage that nature gave an outstanding performance in Austria (and in many other wine countries of Europe). Magnificent white wines and especially sweet wines are still living proof of the vintage’s legendary reputation. But a decade later – in 1969 – nature went even further. >>
(AWMB/December 2009) - For the third time, the international dessert wine competition Concorso internazionale di vini passiti was organized by the Accademia della muffa nobile – the Italian “Botrytis Academy” – and this year’s event proved outstandingly successful for Austria’s Burgenland sweet wines. >>
