Cantina Orsogna

A beautiful balance between the floral fruit character of Malvasia and the richer texture that comes from the skin contact.

Producer Information

Cantina Orsogna is an award-winning Abruzzo cooperative specialising in native grapes of the region such as Montepluciano d`Abruzzo, Cococciola and Pecorino. Orsogna are committed to the biodynamic principles by which they make their wine and have many certified Demeter biodynamic wines.

Under the brand Lunaria, they support the activities of the WWF LIFE Euroturtles project to protect turtles in the Mediterranean. The aim of the project is to improve the conservation status of the EU populations of two sea turtle priority species, the loggerhead turtle Caretta Caretta and the green turtle Chelonia Mydas.

Wine Making

Orange wines are made by leaving white wine on the grape skins for an extended period during the winemaking process. The result is a deeper colour (which gives orange wines their name) and richer characters.

Tasting Note

This wine is a beautiful balance between the floral fruit character of Malvasia and the richer texture that comes from the skin contact, with notes of orange blossom, jasmine, kumquat and apricots.

Food Matching

A great wine to pair with roasted vegetable dishes.
