You can drink Riesling and Chardonnay anywhere. Rotgipfler you can basically only drink here. This rare white grape, a natural cross of Traminer and Roter Veltliner, grows almost nowhere on earth outside the Thermenregion south of Vienna, which makes it one of Austria's best-kept secrets. The Reinisch family farms it organically on the valley floor at Tattendorf and ferments it in steel to keep everything crisp and clear. The result is aromatic and mouthwatering, with a steely mineral edge that keeps it honest. If you like discovering grapes almost no one else has tasted, start here.

More about Familie Reinisch

If you think great Pinot Noir has to come from Burgundy, the Reinisch family would like a word. They work in the Thermenregion, the strip of limestone-rich vineyards just south of Vienna where the Alps run out, and they have made a serious case for Austrian Pinot Noir and its moody local cousin, Sankt Laurent.

The estate (also known as Johanneshof Reinisch) was founded in 1923 with half a hectare of vines and is now run by the fourth generation: brothers Johannes, who makes the wines, Christian and Michael. Their 40 hectares are split between two very different villages. On the valley floor at Tattendorf the soils are loose, alluvial and chalky; up in the hills of Gumpoldskirchen, above 350 meters, the vines sit on fossil-bearing limestone. The brothers converted to organic farming in 2004 and were certified in 2010.

Pinot Noir ages in French oak from a range of cooperages, with the share of whole clusters changing by vintage. The range climbs from friendly Estate bottlings to single-vineyard (Ried) wines such as the Holzspur Pinot Noir and Lores Chardonnay, plus an old-vine Gumpoldskirchen Pinot. And don't overlook the local white grapes: Rotgipfler, rarely grown anywhere but here, is a genuine discovery.
