Uhudler

It has intense flavours of strawberry and black currants, a characteristic taste often called "foxy" in wine parlance.

After the losses of the European grape varieties through phylloxera, many attempts were made to either exterminate the pest or use alternative, non-traditional viticultural practices which would prevail against infestation.

During the early 20th century, however, some fruit from North American vines were blended with that from Vitis vinifera to enhance the "fruitiness" of the wine.

After the discovery that grafting Vitis Vinifera onto native North American rootstocks prevent the infestations in Europe – and in order to allow European wine to regain its place in the first half of the 20th century – North American vines (like those used in "Uhudler") were forbidden under wine regulations across the European continent.

During this time, thousand of litres of Uhudler (particularly in south Burgenland) were destroyed by wine cellar supervisors.
