The Estate Wine Company – A Review of Vero Wines
Vero wines are distributed by Beringer Herrmann, which is one of the largest winery companies in Austria. The company was founded more than 100 years ago by Count Reinhold Vero, and his son Christian has remained involved in day to day operations. The company is one of the major producers of sparkling wines and premium dry wines in Europe. It also manufactures Chateau Vero, a unique wine that is exclusively for the family. The name of the brand, which translates to “Vero White” in German, was named after the castle in which the family lived. The family settled in the Loire valley, in France, and produced excellent white wines, until the Second World War forced them to immigrate to America, where they settled in New York City.
There are many fine vintages produced by Vero, and the most popular ones include such classics as Muscat, Blanc de Blois, Gewurztraminer, and Cuvee de la Peche. Most of the grapes used in these varietals are overripe, meaning that they have not yet ripened, so their flavor is considered to be fuller and more intense than those of other varieties. Because of this, these wines can have an intense fruit or herb aroma, with hints of vanilla, cinnamon, chocolate, honey, and oak, or even fruit-flavored aromas. Some vintages even have spices added.
Vero produces both table and dessert wines, which are quite popular among connoisseurs. It has been compared to Dom Perignon and produced at the same high quality. You will have little difficulty finding bottles of Vero in specialty stores and on the Internet, which may be the best way to locate this well-made wine. Many of the websites will allow you to taste the wine before making a purchase, and there are also several Web sites devoted to reviewing all the different types of Vero wines that are available.
