It may look like a glass of orange juice, but orange (also known as skin-contact or amber) wine is about as far as possible from being a sugary drink. Orange wine is a style of winemaking that has been made for thousands of years, yet it has only recently made its resurgence and find a place on the shelves of so many natural wine bars and stores. Orange wines by their nature of production often overlap with the natural wine world, but it’s important to be aware that not every orange wine is a natural wine. In this class we will learn all the history and behind-the-scenes of making these wines and exploring different styles of orange wines through our tasting.
