Goose Watch Traminette Finger Lakes

Very similar to a German Gwertz, this 2004 Traminette is strong on the nose of spice and oak but is balanced by the fruit and acid. Very apple-like, maybe a Mac or a Pink Lady. It held up well to a creamed spinach and it didn't back down to a rare beef tenderloin. On day 2, the alcohol lingers a bit too long on the palate, but the fruit really opens up. Also as it warms up the nose has wonderful florals. VERY GOOD.
