Straw green color. Aromas and flavors of honeysuckle and geranium and green apple drizzled with balsamic with a silky, bright, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a graceful, interesting, breezy finish with notes of preserved lemon with herbs, pickled mango, mixed greens, and grass with fine, leafy tannins and no oak flavor. A savory, floral, umami-accented white that will be fun to pair with.

Traminette is an hybrid grape, a cross between a French-American hybrid Joannes Seyve and Gewurztraminer. The wine is produced in several states including Illinois, Virginia, Michigan and Maryland. The wines are medium-bodied with fragrant aromas of jasmine, orange blossom and lychee; they are made both dry or with a light touch of sweetness and are meant to be consumed young and fresh. There are also a few sparkling versions produced. Pair with scallops, Thai food or Asian cuisine.
