What is orange wine?

Orange wine is a white wine vinified in the manner of a red wine, that is to say that instead of removing the skins of the grapes as we do for white wine, we keep them and leave them macerate for a longer or shorter time in the juice.

The orange color therefore comes from the skin of the grape which releases its pigments. In addition to color, this technique helps develop a variety of aromas and leaves a subtle tannic sensation in the mouth.

Although it does appear to contain residual sugar due to its fruity and floral aromas, orange wine is rather dry. This type of wine is very fresh, with a beautiful aromatic power and an assertive structure.

Thanks to its versatility and strong personality, it goes well with a wide variety of dishes.
