I am a chick, but pinot grigio is not that sweet. It is actually considered dry.

You can't handle dry!

Still has a sweet twang to me, but as you may have guessed I'm more of a sour mash guy;-D

Pinot Gris/Pinot Grigio is usually manufactured for sweetness in the US and Australia. Alsatian Pinot Gris (my favorite) is usually dry.

Of course, the greatest whites of them all are DRY Riesling and Albarino, but the only SUPER wine is Barolo, which is red.

Any wine from any grape can be made dry or sweet. It all depends on whether the winemaker lets the yeast finish the job.

A nice Argentinian Malbec (red) is great too, and not expensive.

Pinot Grigio, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, all good as well (or should be).

I once had a boss who thought Annie Green Springs was the elixir of life :)
