Greetings from Austria!

I've been on the road in the absolutely beautiful springtime Austria, and, as with last time I visited, have found myself utterly impressed by the quality, range, and expressiveness of the wines here. And as always, wine-region travel is one of the best ways to see some of the most beautiful parts of the planet. To that end, though I'll be posting more extensive tasting notes and impressions later this week, after I return, I wanted to post this photo of one of my "offices" this week. It was taken yesterday morning, at our tasting of wines from the very impressive Leithaberg DAC. And yes, the tasting table is in the middle of the slope among the vines. Great way to start the day!
