Orange Wine

Orange wine, also known as skin-contact or amber wine. A unique and ancient style of wine-making that involves fermenting white grapes with their skins and seeds. This extended contact between the grape skins and the juice imparts a rich amber or orange colour to the final product, giving it its name.

One of the distinguishing characteristics of orange wine is its complexity. The prolonged skin contact allows the wine to extract additional flavours, aromas, and tannins from the grape skins, seeds, and stems. This results in a wine with a wide array of flavours. Ranging from floral and citrusy notes to more complex flavours like honey, nuts, and exotic spices. Orange wines have a robust and bold character, with a slightly grippy texture due to the tannins derived from the grape skins.

These wines are renowned for their versatility when it comes to food pairings. Due to their complex and structured nature, orange wines can complement a wide range of dishes. Enjoy spicy Asian cuisine and rich, creamy sauces to grilled meats, seafood, and even certain cheeses.
