Having spent two years of my career slinging bottles at a French/Austrian restaurant I can confidently say that people love Grüner Veltliner, but at the same time many haven't experienced the grape's range or potential! I think in the wine world it can often be overlooked by its flashy friend Riesling, but from the everyday drinker to the age worthy single-vineyard sites, Grüner Veltliner is a wine that is worth seeking out and enjoying. Today we are focusing on just Grüner and those specifically from Austria, where it is the country's most planted grape varietal making up approximately 1/3 of total vineyard area. The wines can range from crisp and fresh to concentrated and powerful but across that entire span are peppery, herbaceous, and citrus driven wines with a bit of salty minerality. From Schnitzel to seafood and vegetables, allow this fun loving grape to carry you through an entire meal. Today I've chosen just a few of my favorite Grüners, being sure to show off everything from everyday classics to those worthy of a slot in your cellar.
