After Rieslings (Part 1) it went to the (red) Austria, here only a selection. Because the sample Castle Hugenpoet took place, it was appropriate to try first wines of Schloss Gobelsburg in Kamptal, an Austrian legend.

| Dorli Muhr |
Following the tradition of wine then a start-up businesses: Muhr Winery - van der Niepoort / Carnuntum. From Dorli Muhr I read the first time in Stuart Pigott "Brave New World wine" . She did not like the first, ordered the PR expert (Wine & Partners) as too smooth on ("pronounced ambition") - and then revised his opinion in Portugal during a meeting with her and her then-husband Dirk van der Niepoort . With which makes them several years to inherited or acquired vineyards on Spitsbergen in Carnuntum own wine. Besides Blaufränkisch there are test plots with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Syrah and Tempranillo.
- Click here for all wines, not for strength and concentration. The 2008 Cuvée from the mountains, red earth and also the flagship Blaufränkisch Spitzerberg (33 €) holding back fine and elegant and give so discreet, slim and feminine as appearance and outfit of Mrs. Muhr. Only the Syrah turns to something more, due to varietal character, but also by the fatter vintage '07.

| Margaret Triebaumer |
a table on an established winery: Ernst Triebaumer in Rust on Lake Neusiedl . So naturally the focus of interest of Blaufränkisch Ried Marienthal 2008. A wine that is regarded by many as the best Blaufränkisch Austria and for 20 years, cult status, and thus its price is (€ 51.50). Also, the organizer may Thomas Kiernan the concentrated red from well-to Rust among his admirers, he was inspired by Margaret Triebaumer pour a hearty drink and fell into raptures. Again, nothing wide, no fat Brummer and "Buy it overwhelming." Nevertheless, darker and more concentrated than the Spitzerberg . Juvenile violet, strength and density, much food, fresh cherry fruit that seems to be working in the mouth. A wine that requires storage and ripening.

| Fritz Wienienger |
for Friends of the immediate Enjoyment recommended rather the estate Wieninger , appropriately enough from Vienna ("The Taste of Vienna"). Fritz Wieninger plays with his charming Pinots the pamperers. Even the 2007 Pinot Select (19 €) is an open soft flatterer with smoke - and Toffeenoten. Then again an increase from the 2007 Grand Select (39,90 €). Somehow fits to the magnificent Baroque Vienna very well. By Grand Select 2004 admitted Wieninger from a great Pinot Tasting in Singapore, 1st place a few sizes from Burgundy .
