Rich orange color. Highly oxidized nose at first, though it became more balanced. Ginger, nutmeg, iron nose. Candied orange marmalade, black tea and bay leaf on my tongue.
*Birthday selection. Hurts M's tongue but she liked it.

Umami Table: Not the biggest fan of skin-contact wines but this was good. High-toned nose but clean as a whistle, some apricot, honey, and olive notes. Despite being the entry-level, this was quite serious in terms of structure. Went well with food.

Mycket speciellt vin. har omisskännliga orangea kännetecken som vinteräpplen i doft och smak och en aning tanniner. Men det här är ovanligt kraftig (men ändå uppfriskande) och det finns även apelsinskal och aprikos i doften och citrus i smaken.

I love this and partner refuse to drink it. Some oxidation, apricots, honey, orange and lager beer. Taste offers refreshing acidity, some tannins and summer feeling with yellow mature fruit and red apples. I would definetely buy it again despite the difference in opinion here

To tarragon chicken after being vaccinated. Some oxidation, a little bitterness at the end and cut throat acid. Some oranges. Not unpleasant in any way but not really my glass of wine. But glad I've tried it. I'm saving some, but for now - 85.

copper/salmon colored with a trace of disturbance. bursting orange tea, crushed flowers, and natural wine cola notes on the nose. medium bodied and freshly acidic. deep orange flavors and russian tea spice. fine tannin on the back. really hit on a high level tonight.

I don't know what to make of this one. Orange wine still fails to convince me even though I haven't tried too many. It's not unpleasant but the product to me is verging on faulty. I'm quite sure this is a very good wine if you like the style. It's got character, body and acidity but the overall experience leaves a yeasty or leesy ímpression. Will leave it open overnight in a cool place to see how it evolves...

Fun, delightful stuff. Brisk, almost austere but good waxy texture, lots of mineral, quinine, wax, wild skin contact stuff, but it is also quite harmonious and worked so well with cured meats

prefered the 2015 that i drank earlier this year. I remembered the 2015 to have a lovely round tropical fruitness. The 2017 felt thinner, a bit to much of tannins not having the fruit in support. Dont know if i twas the vintage or the two more years that made the difference. Still went well with rakfisk (norwegian fermented trout):)

Sasa's S line, shorter skin contact for earlier drinking. 80% Chardonnay, 20% Tokai, 10 days on skins, 1.5 yrs in barrel. High acid, orange zest, fresh and very long. Unmistakable grape skins taste characteristic of orange wines. Focused and energetic, full bodied. Good.

Light golden to yellow colour. Bit of peach and zesty citrus smell. Mellow and restrained, a touch of yeast and acid in the mouth. Refreshing high acid. Long and satisfying finish, although quite drying. No real tannins.

Funky with bruised red apples, orange and some oxidation. Lovely bitterness and high acidity. Really nice!
