Just Enjoy Orange, by Frigyes Bott
Regular price
£31.00
This Orange wine, or skin contact white if you prefer, is a gorgeous example of just how good this style of wine can be.
The grapes are fermented for 14 days on the skins, similar to how a red wine is made. The flavours are incredible - ripe peach, and tropical mango give it an exotic taste. It’s fresh and vibrant, but also smooth and creamy - the winemaker regularly stirred the lees during maturation to create a beautifully textured wine.
Only 3,000 bottles of this wine were made, and we don’t think they’ll last long.
Why we chose it?
Eye opening flavours balanced with a soft delicate texture. Delicious.

The wine...
Orange
Traminer grapes (of Gewurztraminer fame) have the desired aromatics for a great Orange wine full of intense fruit flavours. Here, only 14 days fermentating on the skins means the extraction of tannin is reduced. The result is a very balanced wine that is highly versatile - great with summary dishes or simply on its own with friends. Serve between 10-13 degrees for the full flavour.
