CLASSIC POTATO LATKES WITH APPLE SAUCE

The spicy and off-dry notes of the Gewurztraminer accentuate the subtle spices of the latkes. Its medium-body pairs well with the cream.

You will want a bit more acidity to go with underlying acidity in the applesauce. The dryness of the sau­vignon blanc will make the apple­sauce taste slightly sweet and the grassy herbal notes will bring out the earthiness of the potato.
