The Veltliner grape variety, known in Austria and Germany as "Grüner Veltliner", is a very ancient vine, whose first citations date back to the 16th century. In 1884 Goethe reported the synonym "Weissgipfel", or "White Cove", and in Lower Austria it was also known as "Grünmuskateller" or "Green Moscato". |
