Orange

No, orange wines aren't made with oranges. The term orange wines or skin-contact wines come from the colour, and this is because it is white wine made by leaving the grape skins and seeds in contact with the juice, creating a deep orange-hued finished product. The process is ancient and dates back over 5000 years to modern day Georgia, but reinvigorated in the last 2 decades.  This maceration creates tannic structure too, making them more complex than your everyday whites. Why not try something new today, and pick up a bottle of orange wine?
