Extremely aromatic. Fantastic nose of peach, apricot, white flowers and a hint of tropical fruit salad. Juicy and unctuous with flavors of pear, honey and preserved lemons. If pushed for a criticism, I suppose it may have been lacking some acidity for balance but that didn't prevent it from being enjoyed immensely.

This is my first foray into the world of orange wine. Was immediately impressed by the extremely aromatic nose of peach, apricot and white blossoms. Was expecting some residual sugar sweetness, but that was not the case. Surprisingly full bodied and structured. The mouth feel is much more complete than most white wines. The fruit is bright and forward, but at the same time shy and austere from the tannins and compounds in the skins. The strong finish includes a surprising amount of non traditional secondary earthy, minty, petroleum flavors.

Beautiful orange wine. Apple cider and fruit in the nose. Fresh, elegant and light on the plate.
