Tinto Amorio Monje Skin-Contact Orange Wine California 2024 750ml

Everyone's favorite orange wine and the first to sell out each season. Monje is a 7-day Skin-Contact Orange wine with a little disco for your palate - crafted to get everyone grooving, and always the talk of the party. Best serve chilled. Production: We picked Organic French Colombard, Gewürztraminer, and Albariño from Madera, Paso Robles, Potter Valley, and Lodi. The wine underwent 7-days of skin-contact & semi-carbonic maceration, and a Zinfandel field blend (10%) was added to tank for a co-fermentation. The wine was aged sur lie in a mix of French oak barrels and stainless-steel tanks for 4 months before being racked off lees to tank and coarse filtered on a full moon's day. < 30 ppm of sulfur was added, unfined, coarse filtered, native yeast. Each bottle was hand-waxed by family and friends – the name Monje (or Monk) is a reflection of the easy-going, no worries approach we live by.
