practices of Georgia. His Breg blend is considered the template for the many orange wines that followed in his path.
Dario Prini: His Pinot Grigio in particular is a benchmark for that grape.
Scholium Project: Along with Wind Gap, Matthiasson and Forlorn Hope, winemaker Abe Schoener’s genre-defying winery has made California a place for orange wine. The Prince In His Caves, a Sonoma Sauvignon Blanc fermented on its skins, remains Schoener’s rightly revered calling card. Domaine Rietsch: The French are still finding their way with this technique, albeit in nearly every region, but it’s in Alsace where some of the most promising examples are found. Winemaker Jean-Pierre Rietsch’s Demoiselle is Gewürztraminer on its skins – fragrant, energetic and a bit of a game-changer.
I hope you are all enjoying summer and that you get the opportunity to slip an orange (wine) into your shopping basket at some point. They can prove quite divisive as a style, but are nonetheless a real broadening of the wine spectrum for many – and that is exactly as it should be. In an effort to up my daily quota of healthy food – not a difficult task, seeing as my current quota is ‘zilch’ – I bought a pack of little Doughnut Peaches.
I initially thought they were a made up, genetically created, for no good reason, fruit, but it would seem not. Saturn Peaches are absolutely delicious – and that’s from someone who would normally decline a peach because it’s akin to stuffing your mouth full of fuzzy felt!
Orange Wine and Saturn Peaches… it’s a ‘thing’…you heard it here first… Sante x
