Brundlmayer 2004 Gruner Veltliner Kamptaler Terrassen
If Gruner Veltliner, the signature Austrian grape, had a textbook flavor, this would be it. Its aromas are sweetly floral, flavors restrained but distinctly tropical and a clean mineral finish give you more than you could ever hope to ask from the “gru-vee” grape. $$$

Brundlmayer 2004 Gruner Veltliner “Ried Lamm”
Like a silky, sweet caress, this wine just feels good going down. Subtle aromas and flavors range from wild grape to licorice to lemon pie and a hint of spice. $$$

Brundlmayer 2004 Riesling Steinmassel
This is a gorgeous, voluptuous wine that teases the senses with its sweet and tart interplay. Faintly herbal in aromas, its flavors are brimming over with allspice, anise seed, lemongrass and honeysuckle. $$$

Hofer 2004 Gruner Veltliner Weinviertel DAC
Imagine a wine to be like that woman with a little edge whose softer side can take some time to show. If that woman were a wine, this would be her. A little weedy in aroma and clensingly astringent, it is just the kind of wine to accompany and showcase a stellar meal. $$

L. Hiedler 2004 Gruner Veltliner “Loess”
This wine is startlingly similar to a fine Chablis in its body and balance. With its honeyed floral aromas and lime and mineral finish it is a sensual, elegant glass of wine. $$

Nigl 2004 Riesling Kremser Privat
Like drenching your tongue in a bath of stone fruit juice, this wine washes the senses with the essence of dried apricot and white peach. $$$$

Nikolaihof 1999 Riesling Im Weingerbirge “Jungfernwein”
Sexy, semi-sparkling and altogether unique, this wine offers an unparalleled sensory experience as tiny bubbles brimming with wild grape, petrol and the tang of blue cheese explode on the tongue. $$$$

Schloss Gobelsburg 2004 Gruner Veltliner “Cobelsburger”
A wine as breathtakingly pretty as a bouquet of fresh cut flowers, its aromas are almost identical in nuance and complexity to the smells of a field of Alpine wildflowers. $$

Setzer 2004 Gruner Veltliner “8000”
If ever a “gru-vee” were an aphrodisiac, this wine would be it. Packed with anise seed aromas and sweaty, feral characteristics, it is a lusty drink. $$$
