Orange wine and regular white wine differ primarily in their production methods. Orange wine is made from white wine grapes where the grape skins are left in contact with the juice during fermentation, a process similar to that used for red wines. This skin contact can last from a few days to several months, imparting a deep orange or amber hue to the wine, along with a robust flavor profile that includes nutty, fruity, and honeyed notes. It also typically has a higher tannin content than white wine.

In contrast, regular white wine is produced by fermenting the juice of white grapes without the skins. This results in a lighter color, ranging from pale yellow to greenish hues, and a flavor profile that tends to be fresher, crisper, and more delicate compared to orange wine. White wines are generally more acidic and have less tannin than orange wines.

Store orange wine in a cool, dark place at a consistent temperature between 45-65°F. Keep the bottles on their sides to maintain cork moisture, and avoid areas with vibrations or strong odors. Consume within a few years of bottling for optimal freshness.

Orange wine, a unique type of white wine made by fermenting the juice with the grape skins, offers a robust flavor profile that pairs excellently with bold, rich dishes like curry, Ethiopian cuisine, or aged cheeses. Enjoy it chilled to enhance its complex characteristics. It’s also a great addition to wine tastings for a surprising twist, allowing connoisseurs and casual drinkers alike to explore its distinct, tannic texture and deep, amber hue. For a creative use, incorporate orange wine into vinaigrettes or marinades to add an unexpected depth of flavor to your culinary creations.
