Orange wines

Orange wines are made from white grapes. However, instead of pressing them directly, as in white wine, the grapes macerate before pressing, which is usually done only in red wine and rosé. When this is done with White grapes, it is called Orange wine because of the color of the wine, which comes from the tannins in the mash.
