The Savoury Orange
Macerado Edicion Limitada, Bodegas Honoria Rubio
Cordovin, Rioja, Spain
I mean orange wine is esoteric enough, but one from Rioja? From a guy who doesn't like orange wines? Yes please. Olive brine is the first thing, followed by overripe fruits, baked apple, walnut, pecan and burnt sugar. Lovely clean finish, with integrated tannins.
