Description
This cracking little ‘orange wine’ comes from the innovative Cramele Recas winery in Romania. It’s not made with oranges, but the name refers to a white wine made in the red wine method, with fermentation taking place on the skins of the grapes, hence the darker colour. This wine is fermented naturally with wild yeasts and without the addition of any sulphur.
Dark straw colour with orange hints, the nose is a delicate mélange of quince, poire william and a hint of vanilla. A complex and structured wine, with elegant but discreet fruit flavours of stone fruits, backed up with a powerful tannin structure and long finish. A natural minimal intervention wine which is well balanced and structured yet pure and incredibly fresh. This is a great wine to try if you wanted to dip your toes into the ‘orange’ style without it being too weird or wacky an introduction.
Feteasca Alba 51%, Sauvignon Blanc 19% & 30% Other varieties
