Subject: Re: Austrian Night at VinoVenue in San Francisco - March 8th


Update on the Austrian wine tasting tomorrow night (Tuesday, March
8th) at VinoVenue:

Franz-Josef Gritsch and Johann Donabaum have brought with them
another wine which they will have on hand at the tasting. It is a
joint project between the two winemakers; a Gruner Veltliner called
"Kalmuck". The name of the wine comes from the plaid jacket worn in
this region (Lower Austria) which was traditionally made from the
saddle blankets of a Mongolian tribe. The wine itself is a classic
Gruner Veltiner, with all of the pepper, spice & mineral notes you'd
expect, and is a joining of the two vintners winemaking philosophies.

As they also described it to me, it's Gruner Veltliner dressed up in
a new tailored jacket ("Veltliner im Neuen G'wand")
