I’m not a fan but it was great to try this Orange wine and I never thought of this super old world style as something new and adventurous to go get some of. Thanks for sharing.

really interesting and complex. this wine tends towards non fruit, with a lot of mushroom and damp aromas. its one of those wines where I'm not sure if I love it or not. may need further investigation. long on the finish.

Amphora aged wine. Almost no smell. For me these amphora wines always smell like soy sauce or soba soup, but very weak version. Anyway it's very unique and if you like amphora aged wine such as Gravner's, this will be a good substitue. This is cheaper tahn Gravner's amphora aged wines.
