'Elderblossem juice.'
In the Wagram, between Krems and Stockerau, you come across elders everywhere. And although wine is its main product, Holundersaft is as typical for the region. No elder berry juice, but juice made from the blossom. The umbel flowers, saturated with honey, are left in water for 24 hours, together with fresh cut lemons. The result is very refreshing. Perfect for the one who is driving during all the wine tasting.
