The process for making orange wine, which was first developed almost 6,000 years ago in Eastern Europe, is being revived. Surprisingly, winemakers do not add oranges to the wine at all. Unlike the latest beer trends, the wine comes naturally in its color. Fermented from white wine grapes, the orange wine comes from increased skin contact during the fermentation process.. Makers treat white grapes like red grapes, preserving the bolder body and tannins while also preserving the bolder body and tannins. As a result, the normally white wine will turn into a vibrant orange shade..
Despite the wine's secrecy, orange wine makes an appearance at wine shows. Vineyards in Orange from the United States to Australia show their orange efforts. Get in on the tasting and find a bottle to share!!
