Pierre Weber
Le Orange, 2020

An A/W ready orange wine with tannins. A masterclass of taming everyone else’s bogeyman Gewurtztraminer, grown high up at 400m, the fresh air must have something to do with it. Grapes met for 2 weeks skin contact before being pressed directly to barriques. Textured, tannic, herbaceous, quite complex, and ready for food. Confidently pair with heavier winter dishes like casserole, coq au vin, maybe a lamb moussaka.
