While Austrians’ feelings toward Freud and The Governator may be mixed, one thing they should all be able to get behind is the nation’s signature grape, grüner veltliner. It makes crisp white wines that are often likened to peppery sauvignon blanc. This bottle from Stagård– a family estate that’s been producing wine since the 1400s– is classic grüner, with a combination of bright citrus, white pepper, and minerality.

Tastes like: Peach, white pepper, chives, and smoke.

How to drink: With sushi, simply prepared seafood, or herb-seasoned roast chicken.
