Did you know that the vast majority of wine would be white, if winemakers didn't take an extra step or two to enusre that some of it ended up red? The color of red wine comes from allowing the juice to macerate with the skins of the grapes for a period of time before pressing. If you follow the same process with white grapes though, you get orange (or amber) wine. Although there's not much color to extract from the skins, there are other compounds present that help to create a very different style from your typical glass of white wine.
On Wednesday, August 21 from 4pm to 7pm, we'll be exploring the range of orange wine. Join us!
Tickets for our regular Wednesday tastings are $15, and all sparkling wines in the shop are at least 10% off during the tasting and through the weekend.
