Grüner Veltliner is Austria’s most generally planted white selection, occupying virtually a 3rd of the nation’s vineyards, and it’s not exhausting to see why – it’s a grape that succeeds in a wide range of kinds.
Staying with associates in Vienna within the Nineteen Eighties, we might devour substantial portions of Grüner Veltliner purchased from the producer at an area market. It was easy however recent, quaffable, and cheap.
Later, in 1998, I participated in a well-known blind tasting in Vienna that pitted high Grüner Veltliners towards a number of the most prestigious wines from Burgundy. The Austrian wines triumphed and, at least, the tasting demonstrated that these have been wines to be taken very critically.

That tasting helped to ascertain Grüner Veltliner’s worldwide status. It might not be as standard as Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc, however it has a robust following amongst sommeliers and a rising band of wine lovers who respect its versatility.
