i'm a huge fan of austrian reds, but living in the u.s., i find it
quite difficult to track them down. austrian whites, on the other
hand, are plentiful and easy to find.

although i live in new york and have easy access to great wine
stores, selection is limited and some of the items that i'm looking
for just can't be found (e.g., '00 anton iby cuvee anton, '00 johann
heinrich terra o., '00 krutzler perwolff & eichkogel, '00 t-fx-t
arachon, '00 gernot heinrich gabarinza, ...). it seems that chicago
area retailers have the best austrian red selection, likely due to
the fact that the primary austrian red wine importer is vin divino,
based in chicago. in fact, most of my austrian red collection has
come from chicago-based online retailers.

so my questions are: can anybody suggest how i might be able to more
successfully source the austrian reds that i want? also, could you
please note and describe the austrian reds that you recommend (you
may have gathered from the above examples that i like the blends,
however, i would also be grateful for single varietal suggestions)?
your advice is greatly appreciated!
