Bright gold color. Interesting aromas and flavors of heirloom apple, exotic peach, yuzu, pickled apricot, and petrol with a round, lively, dry medium body and a tingling, nuanced, medium-long finish. A bone dry, yet outstandingly balanced Orange Wine with rich body, exotic flavors and fantastic food affinity; the adventurous are sure to find appeal here.

Other White is a large category that covers many white wines from around the globe that are made from lesser-known grape varietals. They may also be blends of white grapes where a single varietal is not listed on the label, rather the percentage of varietals used to make the blend are listed, or no varietals are listed at all.
