Grove winemaker Max Lloyd makes a stunning array of wines, including Traminette – a cousin to Gewurztraminer. His 2006 vintage was a drier style and he followed it with an off-dry style in 2007.
Traminette prefers a cooler grape growing area and has done well for growers on the eastern seaboard. It delivers a fruity white with a hint of spiciness.
The off dry style complements the pineapple in this dish.
