Common name in Germany (also Neuer Wein, Nuier) for a partially fermented grape must. The name is confusing because it is a wine that is not yet fully fermented. See also under Federweißer and similar wines under Most. In Austria, this is a wine-legal designation (also Der Neue); see under Primus.
For my many years of work as an editor with a wine and culinary focus, I always like to inform myself about special questions at Wine lexicon. Spontaneous reading and following links often leads to exciting discoveries in the wide world of wine.
