This wine (at least the 2004 vintage) has gotten consistently good reviews, so I hesitate to knock it. But I really didn't find it either tasty or interesting. The mix of varietals, it seemed, led to a muddle of flavors (though perhaps a year or two in bottle will bring them into focus). For Austrian wines, I've had more luck so far with straight Grüner Veltliners or Rieslings.
