Burgenland

**Burgenland** ... — a wine region in eastern Austria, along the Hungarian border, best known for its red wines and world-class sweet whites. **Wines & grapes** — Reds built on Blaufränkisch and Zweigelt lead the way, while the area around the shallow Lake Neusiedl is famous for luscious botrytis-affected dessert wines. **Character** — A warm, sunny, Pannonian climate ripens reds fully, giving wines with dark fruit, spice and firm but supple structure. The lake's humidity encourages noble rot, ideal for concentrated sweet wines. **Good to know** — Burgenland is the heartland of Austria's red-wine renaissance, with Blaufränkisch increasingly seen as its most serious and age-worthy variety.
