Description
Winemakers’ note: “This vintage we focused a lot on the idea of ‘flavor’: how to build flavors through blends, what flavors consumers are looking for? what is a ‘flavor forward’ wine? ‘BIG ORANGE’ is meant to deliver on a larger format, easy to drink Orange wine for the masses. When people say they like ‘Orange wine’ what do they mean? Well we think this is it. :)”
Grapes: 43% Muscat Canelli, 33% Symphony, 15% Sauvignon Blanc, 9% Torrontes
Making of: Each varietal was de-stemmed and fermented separately with native yeast and bacteria for 1-2 weeks on skins, with punchdowns and/or pumpovers twice daily. The wines then rested in tank and neutral oak for 5 months. Aged on fine lees and lightly filtered before bottling, with 30ppm SO2 added.
Personality: Delicious and easy drinking — and shareable!
