In this episode we dive into Traminette, the state grape of Indiana. We talk with Jill Blume, an Indiana-based enologist, and Shane Christ of Acres Away Winery.

Traminette is an aromatic white wine grape, that is planted in much of the milder East and Midwest wine regions. Some consider Traminette to be analogous to Gewürztraminer.

In this episode we discuss the following:

• The characteristics of Traminette wines
• How the aroma profile of Traminette changes from the North to South
• Characteristics of terpenes in grapes versus wine
• Shane shows how he is the master of wine analogies, including one with his grandma's completely pink bathroom!
• Shane and Randall are dog people and Anne loves cats...
