Grooner Grüner Veltliner 2010, Niederosterrich
Austria$13.55
While I dislike the label, the wine is very good.
It's ripe, round, fruity--a good example of what has made GV so popular around the world. It's a great sipping wine, much softer than most Cab Sauvignons but with more personality than most Pinot Gris/Grigios, and therefore suitable for all "white wine foods".
There's even some complexity--so despite the foolish label, it's a great house white and a strong buy, especially at this surprisingly low price.

Weingut Zahel Grüner Veltliner 2009, Riedencuvée, Vienna
Austria$15.95
This is a good, typical example of the traditional, spicy and more acidic GV's than those aimed at the usual export market. This wine is designed to accompany any type of meal (fish or red meat, etc.) rather than sipping without food. The modern GV's we usually see here are riper and rounder and better suited for sipping or as company for fish/white meats.
