Fusion Wines - supplier of fine wines from Weinbau Altenriederer, Traismauer, Traisental

Erich Altenriederer’s family estate produces wine from 7.5 hectares of grapes, and also a range of fresh fruit juices from a further 8 hectares of orchards, mainly for the local market. The estate is located at Wagram/Traismauer, near Krems, a small village between the Danube and the Traisen (a tributary of the Danube) which gives the Traisental its name. This region enjoys a good local micro-climate. In recent years, Erich has, together with his wife Sibylle and mother Angela, invested in a new modern cellar, and has planted new vineyards, which yield better and better quality wine as time passes. They have planted new varieties for this region, such as Riesling, and selected the best Grüner Veltliner clones available. Other varieties grown include Chardonnay, Zweigelt, Blauer Portugieser, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Blauburger. Erich spends a lot of time on vineyard husbandry, as he believes quality starts in the vineyard. The family opens its doors to visitors who wish to sample produce, and the local community help out at harvest time. To summarise, Altenriederer wines are of good quality and offer outstanding value for money; particularly with their 1 litre bottles of Grüner Veltliner & Zweigelt which are ideal for "by the glass" sales.

Erich's wines have rapidly become very popular in the UK, and have received positive recommendations from leading commentators.
