This chapter explores the wines that once graced Habsburg courts — Austria's precise, mineral-driven Grüner Veltliner and Riesling alongside Hungary's noble Furmint and the legendary sweetness of Tokaji — tracing a shared aristocratic heritage that still shapes both countries' wine identities today.
