Have you heard of “orange” wine? It is sometimes called “natural” wine and basically, it is a wine made from white grapes, like orange muscat or Pinot Gris, and is left with the skins intact, much like is done for red grapes, to get red wine. But with white grapes, the skins can impart an orange colour, more texture and a variety of flavours to the wine. The wines are fermented with indigenous yeasts, keeping human intervention to a bare minimum.
I spoke with Julian from Hard Row to Hoe Vineyards at The Grand Tasting at Taste Washington about their orange wine, called “Afternoon Delight”. Watch to find out more about this wine and the winery.
