Welschriesling grape variety

Welschriesling is a white grape variety that is mainly cultivated in Austria and in the wider Danube region of the former Austro-Hungarian Empire. Despite its name, it is not related to Riesling. It has a high acidity and a fresh flavour with notes of green apple and citrus fruit, sometimes complemented by a mineral note. Welschriesling is often used to produce fresh and fruity wines, but is also used in sparkling wines or as a base for sweet and noble sweet wines. It is also often used as the wine base for G'spritzen, as the wine spritzer is called in Austria. The grape variety is resistant to the cold - but is sensitive to late frosts due to its early budding. Welschriesling wines have good ageing potential and can gain in flavour and complexity after a few years in the cellar.
