Common name in Styria(Austria) (also Altsteirischer Mischsatz) for Gemischter Satz. The term has no meaning in wine law. For practical reasons, different grape varieties are planted together in a vineyard to minimise risk. The typical grape varieties are Grauburgunder (Pinot Gris), Grüner Hainer, Weißer Heunisch (Gouais Blanc), Morillon, Mosler (Furmint), Sauvignon Blanc, Traminer and Weißburgunder (Pinot Blanc), which are harvested and processed together. The blend is handled individually by the winemakers.
For my many years of work as an editor with a wine and culinary focus, I always like to inform myself about special questions at Wine lexicon. Spontaneous reading and following links often leads to exciting discoveries in the wide world of wine.
