Orange Wine

 

This style of wine is becoming increasingly popular. It is not made with oranges. It doesn’t taste like oranges either. The reason it is known as orange wine is the colour. To make an orange wine the winemaker leaves the grape skins and seeds from white skinned grape varieties in with the juice for as long as they choose, depending on the style of wine. This process often involves no additives, it's often used in a natural wine making process – although not always. These wines do taste quite different from regular wines, they are often dry and sour, with an intense depth of flavour and tannins imparted from the skins and pips. These style of wines often suit Belgian beer drinkers, there is a definite cross-over in flavour profile.

Orange wine isn't your typical white wine. You’ll discover unique nutty and citrusy flavours within this style of grape, alongside a distinctive colour palette. It ranges across a spectrum of amber tones to a sun-kissed orange. Orange wine differs from white wine by producing a bolder flavour profile. This is due to an extended soak on the grape skins, intensifying the flavour over time.

Made from white grapes with a twist, orange wine undergoes a unique fermentation process where the juice remains in contact with the skins. The prolonged contact with the ‘skin’ of the grape enriches the wine with its bold flavour and colour. The infused wine displays a vibrant orange shade, filled with vibrant, citrusy, and nutty notes. 

The real benefit lies in the taste. Skin contact adds complexity, creating a more interesting and engaging experience compared to ordinary white wines. This complexity also allows it to perfectly pair well with a huge variety of tasty foods. 

Journey beyond the ordinary white wine pairing, and discover a new food-friendly partner for tasty nibbles, cheese, spice, and even seafood. Explore our diverse range of orange wine, and find your perfect bottle to pair with your next dinner party menu.
