Description
It’s Bordeaux Jim, but not as we know it! Outlandish winemaker Olivier Cazenave likes to do things a little differently and this Orange Bordeaux is testament to that. Made with predominantly Semillon that spends two weeks on skins before being run off by gravity into a seperate tank for a further 6 months at 5 degrees Celcius until bottling. A tiny amount of traditionally fermented Sauvignon and Muscadelle is added to add freshness and a floral edge. No sulphur was used at harvest and is only used in the bottling process when absolutely necessary.
The wine itself is refreshing and complex with tangerine, tropical fruits and floral notes. Mouthfilling, generous and rounded on the complex palate with a long, spicy citrus tinged finish.
