This wine is my new gateway wine into the world of "Orange Wines" - white wines that take a page from the red wine playbook by allowing the juice to remain in contact with the skins. This lends a bit of color, allows for some oxidation (more color), and creates a wonderful textural element not found in white wines made the traditional way. Note, in no way do Orange Wines contain any juice, or trace ingredients of any sort, from the fruit known as the Orange. Whatever their origin, Orange wines aren't for everyone - some prefer the fresh aromatics of white wines made in the more common method. But I encourage you to put pre-conceived notions aside when you bring a glass of this wine to your nose for the first time. This wine falls int the "Natural" wine camp. While there's no common definition of this category, it generally refers to wines made following most or all of the following practices: organic/sustainable farming, natural yeast fermentations, no additives, minimal/no SO2 additions) This wine is a blend of Friulano, Soreli, and Pinot Grigio sees 60 days on skins. It is a textbook example of Friulian Orange Wine.
