This is an orange wine. It is a reference to the fact that this wine is fermented with skin contact and not a direct reference to the color. The exact hue may vary from fairly pale to a deep amber.
The Maturana Naranjo has a bright copper color with notes of orange peel, grapefruit, dried peaches and apricots, which make it a smooth wine with a persistent texture, pleasant freshness, elegant acidity and a long finish.
Naranjo (Orange) is made from 100% Torontel grapes from vines planted in 1940 and native to the Maule Valley.
Grapes are hand harvested in a small boxes, and destemmed. They are left to ferment with native yeast and stay in contact with the skins for 8 months in stainless steel tank. After obtaining the natural coloration of the wine, the natural decanting of the marc is made and the wine is bottled.
