🏷️ Ausbruch
Austrian wine name: a wine from the Free City of Rust that meets the conditions of Trockenbeerenauslese may be sold as Ruster Ausbruch.
Ausbruch is a protected wine term in the Austrian Weingesetz 2009. Under § 11, a wine that meets the conditions for Trockenbeerenauslese (a Beerenauslese from mostly noble-rotted, largely shrivelled berries with a must weight of at least 30° KMW) and comes from the Free City of Rust may be sold as Ruster Ausbruch instead of Trockenbeerenauslese. For any other wine or wine product the designation Ausbruch may not be used.
Like other Prädikat wines, it may not be enriched or sweetened, and its volatile acidity may not exceed 2.4 g/l. The list of Prädikat wines in the current text of the law has no separate Ausbruch entry (item 4 of the list was repealed by BGBl. I No. 47/2016).
