Orange Gold 2022 by Gérard Bertrand is an organic orange wine from the south of France, at 12.5% ABV.
It is a tribute to the world's first orange wines, made in Georgia over 4,500 years ago, reimagined with Mediterranean freshness.
White grapes are fermented in whole bunches like a red wine, giving a brilliant orange hue with golden reflections and a refined tannic structure.
The blend of seven Mediterranean varieties includes Chardonnay, Viognier, Chenin, Roussanne, Grenache Blanc and Muscat.
White flowers, candied fruit and white pepper lead to a fresh, textured palate with light tannins and a long, subtly bitter finish.
Good wine rewards a little care in serving. Whites and rosés show best chilled to around 45 to 50°F, while reds are at their most expressive slightly below room temperature, around 60 to 65°F. Opening the bottle and letting it breathe for a few minutes, or pouring it into a decanter, helps the aromas open up.
