Armenian orange wine, though made from white grape varieties, stands apart from other white wines. As the name suggests, these wines have an orange hue, and in terms of taste and tannin structure, they resemble red wines more than white wines.

The production of Armenian orange wine

Armenian orange wine demands extensive knowledge and expertise from the winemaker. During production, the grape juice is not immediately separated from the skins, allowing the wine to ferment for several weeks to months in underground karas (amphora barrels). Winemakers strive to keep this process as natural as possible, refraining from adding cultured yeasts or sulfites.

Typically, the maceration occurs in open vessels, which allows ample oxygen to reach the wine and promotes oxidation. This process results in a range of colors, from yellow and gold to amber and orange. After fermentation, the skins impart their flavor, aroma, and color to the wine, culminating in a rich and complex taste experience.
