Collection: Orange wines

Whether “amber wine”, “macerated white wine” or “orange wine” all mean wine made from white grapes, where the mash is left in the juice for a certain time during fermentation. 

As with all wines, the grape, the terroir, the weather and the vintage have the greatest influence on the taste of the orange wine. Compared to white wines with the same characteristics, orange wines have a stronger body, often slightly less noticeable acidity, and fir that white wines don't have.

The first orange wine was probably made in the Caucasus Mountains, in present-day Georgia, about 8000 years ago. Since scientists are still not sure where wine comes from and how long it has been around, it is possible that orange wine preceded white wine
