Little wine due to big heat
121
In Austria there is little wine this year. The wine makers harvest only 1,7 million Hektoliter. That is much less than normal. So little wine was there last in the year 2010. The reason is great heat and dry air.
The grape berries are very small this year. Small berries have less juice. But they have much taste. Experts expect a very good wine. The wine tastes very special. The plants are also very healthy this year.
In the east of Austria it is very dry. In the Wein-Viertel nearly half the harvest is missing. The harvest starts very early this year. In Nieder-Österreich and Steiermark the wine makers already work. Also in Vienna the wine harvest already starts.
