Naranjo, Maturana

Loncomilla, Maule Valley, Chile
orange wine: Torontel

Tangy orange wine carefully crafted and produced in tiny quantities. It stays in contact with the pinkish skins of Torontel for 8 months, thus its orange hue. It is made from heritage vines of almost 80 years old located in Loncomilla, a remote sub-region of the Maule Valley in Chile.

 

“Pale orange-tawny. Very nicely balanced. The sort of orange wine you could take home to meet your mother. Nothing too extreme but a definite charmer. Very seductive indeed. Just the job to introduce the concept of orange wine with its smoky, neat finish. What’s the Spanish equivalent of bravissimo? VGV”
