Orange Wine! + Video Link

Orange Wine, a new trend that is finally becoming popular over the years, but still is finding to be not as frequent to find as well. Orange wine, is not made from oranges as you may think. Orange wine is basically white wine, where the stems, seeds, or skins, of the grape are macerated or soaked for a period of time, exactly how rosé and red wine are produced, but for a lot longer of a process!

To make an orange wine, you first take white grapes, mash them up, and then put them in a large vessel (often cement or ceramic). Then, you typically leave the fermenting grapes alone for four days to sometimes over a year with the skins and seeds still attached.

This is a natural process that uses little to no additives, sometimes not even yeast. Because of all this, they taste very different from regular white wines and have a sour taste and nuttiness from oxidation.

You may also hear the term “Ramato,” which means “auburn,” in Italian, and typically refers to Italian Pinot Grigio made in an orange wine style.
