This is the Strasser Hasel Alte Reben GV 2007 from Weingut Allram. Not a
Smaragd or Federspiel for some reason, but with 13.5% ABV anyway.
Light yellow with a greenish tinge this is a very typical GV, dry and
intense (benefits from time in the glass) and also very refreshing, with
good length. A steal at the price imho (9.20EUR in Austria, 12EUR in
Norway(!))
Had it with baked salmon at Christmas and with flatfish yesterday, excellent
with both.
I'm going to buy a couple more bottles today!
Wonder what our resident Austrian thinks of it :-)

I think those designations are only used in Wachau.
Nice note, thanks

Not only "used", but strictly reserved for Wachau wines from members
of Vinea Wachau.

Weingut Allram is in Kamptal wine-growing region.
