My general impression from listening to others is that
a) Austrian wines are not cheap
b) They offer good value for money

Would people here agree with these propositions, and do they apply at
all price levels for Austrian wines?

The reason I ask is that yesterday I tried several Austrian wines that
are probably at the bottom end of what anyone would currently bother
importing into the UK. They varied in price between GBP 8.00 and
13.00. Everyone who tried these wines felt they offered generally
poor VFM. My opinion was that the range was from "shockingly
overpriced" to "about right". I only have sketchy notes, but if
anyone is really interested in exploring the issue in detail, give me
a shout and I will post them.
