Alsace-style gastronomic orange, a dance of spices and citrus

A beautiful orange color with hints of pink. The gorgeous aroma of mandarin and grapefruit peel, lychee, and white flowers is layered with the spice of licorice and ginger. The transparency of a white wine coexists with the delicate tannins of a red wine, and the salty minerality and subtle bitterness enhance the flavor of food, making this a gastronomic wine that truly shines at the dinner table.

Tasting Comments

Tasting Notes
When poured into a glass, it has a beautiful orange color with hints of pink.

The aroma that rises is a blend of mandarin and grapefruit zest, the elegance of lychee and white flowers, and nuances of spices such as licorice, ginger and subtle herbs.

When you put it in your mouth, the clear aroma is like that of white wine, while the delicate tannins reminiscent of red wine form a structure.

The salty minerality and umami flavor derived from the peel spread throughout the mouth, while the subtle bitterness and hop-like nuances create a pleasant aftertaste.

A gastronomic orange wine that combines exoticism with a dry, crisp taste and is perfect with a meal.

Pairing
Spicy chicken tagine
Grilled white fish with spicy tomato and herb sauce
Pate de campagne
