Marillenschnaps is a type of fruit brandy that is distilled from apricots. The drink is traditionally associated with Wachau—a region known for apricot production—though it is also produced in other Austrian and German regions.

High-quality apricot brandy should be double-distilled from fresh apricot mash to create a clear and potent spirit with an alcohol content that typically goes around 40% ABV. This brandy will display apricot and floral aromas with a warming, fruity, and long aftertaste. 

Mostviertler Birnmost is an Austrian variety of perry, produced by cask fermentation of the juice obtained by pressing fermented pears. Traditional production of perry is derived from local pear varieties at extensive orchards. First mention of the Mostviertler perry dates back to 1240.

Birnmost is fully fermented and clear, without any cloudiness in the liquid. Depending on the perry pears used, it can be reddish yellow, light to golden yellow, or greenish in color. What distinguishes Mostviertler Birnmost is the fruity, pure flavor of the perry pear varieties which are otherwise not suitable for direct consuming due to their astringent phenol content. 

Rotgipfler is a native Austrian grape variety that is now mostly cultivated in Thermenregion. The grape was traditionally used in blends—most commonly with Zierfandler—but many producers now see its potential as an excellent varietal grape that can produce aromatic dry and off-dry wines.

It is a pale-skinned grape with vibrant acidity and aromas reminiscent of yellow and tropical fruit, such as peach, pear, melon, and mango. The wines will often have subtle floral, spicy, and almond nuances. They usually have great aging potential.

Rotgipfler is a natural cross between Traminer and Roter Veltliner. 

Zierfandler is a native Austrian grape from Thermenregion that is used in varietals and blends. It is believed that this late-ripening grape is a cross between Roter Veltliner and an unidentified variety, which is possibly related to the Traminer family.

The grape is thick-skinned, high in sugar, and sensitive to frost and botrytis. It is also known as Spätrot (translates as late red), a name that refers to the distinctive red hue the grapes attain before harvest. Zierfandler can produce excellent quality wines, including dry and off-dry styles. 

Roter Veltliner is an old Austrian grape that produces bright white wines with good acidity and exotic fruit notes. Although the name suggests otherwise—roter translates as red—the grape produces white wines, and its name was probably inspired by the pinkish color of their skin.

Most plantings are found in Lower Austria (Niederösterreich), mainly in Wagram and Weinviertel. Roter Veltliner is a demanding, late-ripening grape that can produce lighter, medium-bodied wines, but it also has potential for full-bodied, rich, aromatic styles.
