Discover the best wines made with Traminette as a single variety or as a blend of Massachusetts.
Muscat-scented, structured whites with a golden robe, full palate and firm acidity. Intense aromas of rose, lychee, white flowers, yellow fruits (peach, apricot), honey and soft spices reminiscent of Gewürztraminer. Produced as dry, off-dry and sweet styles. Aromatic flagship of the American north-east (Indiana — the state's signature variety —, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania) and Canada. Hybrid created in 1965 by Cornell University (Joannes Seyve 23.416 × Gewürztraminer).
Northeastern US state integrated into the Southeastern New England AVA, six counties including Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket. Maritime climate moderated by the Atlantic. Signature Chardonnay as ruling white: taut and chiselled with green apple, lemon, pear, white flowers, nut butter and a saline mineral touch — cool-climate elegance on former dairy farms. Vivid Riesling, fruity Vidal hybrid.
