Österreich Wine Map – Austria Wine Regions

Discover Austria through a detailed wine map drawn from the vineyards themselves, plot by plot, from the terraced Danube slopes of the Wachau to the warm hills of Südsteiermark. Austria is 570 kilometres wide, but almost all of its wine grows in the eastern fifth. Framed on the country, four fifths of a poster would be empty mountain. This map is framed on the vineyards instead — the 252 municipalities that carry ten hectares of vines or more, which is 98 % of the Austrian vineyard, in a frame of 215 by 244 kilometres. Some 44,000 hectares are drawn plot by plot, so the vineyard appears where it really is: spread wide across the Weinviertel, tightly terraced above the Danube, wrapped around the shallow Neusiedler See, and scattered along the steep green ridges of Steiermark. Each of the four Weinbauregionen carries its own tinted ground, and every one of the seventeen Weinbaugebiete is named on its own vines, with the grapes it is known for. Wien is the smallest of the four and the most unusual: the only major capital in the world with commercial vineyards inside the city itself, and the home of Wiener Gemischter Satz — a field blend of several varieties planted together, picked together and pressed together. A decorative and informative wine map for anyone who wants to understand where Austrian wine actually comes from, and to add a refined piece of wine-inspired design to the wall. The four Weinbauregionen Austria is drawn as its four wine regions, each with its planted area and the Weinbaugebiete it holds: Niederösterreich – 26,732 ha · Weinviertel, Kamptal, Kremstal, Wachau, Traisental, Wagram, Carnuntum, Thermenregion Burgenland – 11,538 ha · Neusiedlersee, Leithaberg, Rosalia, Mittelburgenland, Eisenberg Steiermark – 5,109 ha · Vulkanland Steiermark, Südsteiermark, Weststeiermark Wien – 588 ha · Wien The grapes on the map Every Weinbaugebiet is named on the map together with the grapes it is known for: Weinviertel – Grüner Veltliner Kamptal – Grüner Veltliner, Riesling Kremstal – Grüner Veltliner, Riesling Wachau – Grüner Veltliner, Riesling Traisental – Grüner Veltliner, Riesling Wagram – Grüner Veltliner, Roter Veltliner Carnuntum – Zweigelt, Blaufränkisch Thermenregion – Zierfandler, Rotgipfler Neusiedlersee – Zweigelt, Welschriesling Leithaberg – Blaufränkisch, Weissburgunder Rosalia – Blaufränkisch, Zweigelt Mittelburgenland – Blaufränkisch Eisenberg – Blaufränkisch, Welschriesling Vulkanland Steiermark – Traminer, Weissburgunder Südsteiermark – Sauvignon Blanc, Morillon Weststeiermark – Blauer Wildbacher Wien – Gemischter Satz, Grüner Veltliner Grüner Veltliner alone covers about a third of the Austrian vineyard.
