Orange Wine
Orange Wine is made by leaving white wine in contact with the grape skin, giving some colour, and a depth of flavour similar to a red wine. The wines can be very dry and sometimes a little sour in taste. They are becoming very popular as something a little different. There are no oranges involved however!

Solara Orange Wine
Refreshing like a white wine, with the complexity of red wine. This orange wine is made by leaving the grape skins and seeds in contact with the pressed juice, creating a deep orange-hued finish. Flavours of stone fruits, backed up with a powerful tannin structure and long finish.
Funkstille, Skin Contact
A delightful blend of Riesling, Grüner Veltliner, Gewürztraminer and Muscat which offers up notes of ginger, white pepper and flowers, with an underlying hint of green tea and mandarin. Fabulous acidity, gentle tannic grip from the skins and generous fruit with every mouthful.
The winery is energy neutral, producing energy from their Biogas plant and a solar system. Sustainably certified by agroVet, they also produce their own fertiliser. They produce their own seeds to sew cover crops in the vineyards and use straw from the fields in the young vineyards to protect the vines from dry stress.
Rallo Vicoletto, Orange Wine
The Vesco family make fragrant, organically certified wines. They represent the best and most typical style of winemaking in western Sicily: crisp Catarratto and perfumed, fresh Nero d’Avola from their hillside vineyards.
This orange wine is slightly cloudy in colour thanks to the natural approach to winemaking; with no stabilisation, fining or filtration resulting in a wine with very low sulphur levels. The bouquet is a beautiful mix of citrus, grapefruit, apple and white fleshed fruits that follows onto the palate. Complemented by Mediterranean herbs and a backbone of fresh, racy acidity.
Felicette First Contact.
This stellar skin contact wine is a co-fermentation of Grenache Gris and Muscat. Citrus and lychee are met with mature floral notes as well as fine and sweet spice. Lively and fresh with acidity that balances beautifully.
Pairs well with aged cheeses, root vegetables with honey and spice, seafood and all things Mediterranean.
Bodegas Altolandon Enblanco
Owner & winemaker, Rosalia Molina, makes organic wines in one of Spain’s highest altitude wineries. Her mission is to make wines that express the typicity of DO Manchuela: the vineyard, the altitude and the varieties planted.
This is a climate on the edge of what is possible: at 1,100 metres above sea level, the grapes experience a large diurnal range that encourages even ripening and helps to retain natural acidity. Rosalia’s vineyards are certified organic, she uses only natural fertilisers, promoting biodiversity by welcoming chickens, sheep and pigs from local farms to roam the vineyards freely. Grapes are hand harvested and vinified as naturally as possible with native yeasts and little other intervention. The wines are then aged in clay amphora and some in French oak to give texture and complexity.
A very pale orange pink colour, the nose is elegant with sweet aromas of stone fruits, mineral and anise, supported by apricot, mirabelle plum and citrus notes. Full and well rounded on the palate, with plenty of weight, yet still elegant, lively and light in body. Easy to drink.
Fattoria di Vaira Vincenzo Bianco
Fattoria di Vaira is one of the largest biodynamic farms in Italy. Here they cultivate vegetables, grains and cereals, and produce fresh cheeses, olive oil and honey. After several years of applying biodynamic practices, their soil has been restored, reaching a degree of purity similar to wild soil.
This is a tasty, hand-harvested orange wine made from a blend of Falanghina and Trebbiano. Medium-bodied, peach on the nose, smoky, nutty, apples, plums. Unfined, unfiltered and full of character.
Chateau St Cyrgues Salamandre Orange
Skin‑contact white from organically farmed vineyards near Saint‑Gilles, made from Grenache Blanc and Roussanne. The grapes ferment on their skins for several days, giving gentle tannin, citrus peel notes, and a deeper, amber colour. Fermented with native yeasts and aged in stainless steel to keep the focus on freshness and texture. A clean, approachable orange wine with enough grip for food pairing and a clear Rhône accent.
Pierre & Antonin Petit Sauvage Orange
Pierre & Antonin work in the Cité de Carcassonne with a clear, consistent philosophy: use disease‑resistant varieties, keep chemical input low, and make clean, expressive wines with minimal intervention. Their approach is rooted in sustainability rather than trend—choosing hardy grapes allows them to farm with fewer treatments and maintain healthy soils.
Carcassonne sits where Atlantic and Mediterranean influences meet. The region is windy, which naturally limits disease pressure, and the vineyards lie on a mix of limestone, clay, and old alluvial soils. Warm days build flavour, while elevation and airflow preserve acidity. It’s a landscape that suits their low‑input approach and supports bright, fresh styles.
Petit Sauvage follows that logic. It’s made from Souvignier Gris, another resistant variety that thrives in their conditions. The wine is dry, crisp, and lightly aromatic, showing citrus, pear, and subtle herbal notes with a clean, refreshing finish. The texture stays light, the fruit is clear, and the overall style reflects both the grape’s resilience and the estate’s commitment to low‑intervention farming.
The glass is the lightest available and the cork is locally grown, they don’t use aluminium wrap on the neck of the bottle and they don’t add sulphites to the wine.
Matias Morcos Naranjo Moscatel
This skin contact wine has everything we are looking for – the quirky complexity that can be found from this technique but also, crucially, fresh aromatics and varietal expression. Here’s a wine that will make you smile, with its aromas of candied orange peel and runny honey, and hints of exotic flowers; it almost seems to have a hint of botrytis on the nose. The wine is completely dry with flavours of dried citrus fruits and raisins, medium-bodied and floral on the end.
Utterly delicious. Made from Moscatel Rosado, which it is not officially recognised as such, yet. The wine is indeed a lovely rose pink colour in the glass. Definitely not orange!
John Okro Zvari Rkatsiteli
Eastern Georgian, natural, unfiltered wine made from Rkatsiteli. No additions whatsoever. It’s savoury and highly textured yet very approachable for this style of wine. Gorgeous honeyed nose and a nutty finish. Made to be drunk with food.
Arndorfer Schlehe Amber Wine
A beautiful , juicy, orange wine from Austria. Ripe plums, apricots and peaches with a little spice on the finish. All naturally, organically and biodynamically farmed in Kamptal. No sulphur, unfined and unfiltered. A great introduction to orange wine.
Sandridge Barton Little Bee
The Sandridge Barton vineyard was planted in 2008, 3 kilometres downriver from their original vineyard on the Sharpham Estate, and these vines now produce over 80 tonnes of grapes a year from 32 acres. They take a very gentle approach to growing grapes, being concious of the impact on the natural environment and don’t use pesticides or herbicides.
The Little Bee is 100% fermented on skins and made with minimal intervention from start to finish. It’s complex, textured and full of energy. The nose is layered with ruby grapefruit, tangerine peel and blood orange. On the palate, you’ll find more grapefruit and sour stone fruit, supported by soft, grippy tannins, taut acidity and a long, generous finish.
Achillee Pepin Orange Wine
Sweet fruits and spice, grapefruit and orange! Organic and biodynamic vineyard in Alsace making outstanding wines, this is so fresh and will pair perfectly with hard cheeses or lemon desserts.
Andert Rulander
A salty, smokey orange wine from a tiny biodynamic vineyard in Neusiedlersee, eastern Austria. Rülander is an alternative name for Pinot Gris, this is slightly herby and one for fans of natural wines.
