Description
Cramele Recas, Orange Natural Wine, Timisului, Romania
A rich, characterful, oxidative style of wine full of dried-fruit character, apricots and orange zest in particular. Some citrus and floral notes complement the dried fruit on the palate which has a nutty and spicy finish.
Critics' Tasting Notes:
"An easy introduction to orange wine. The juice of native Romanian grapes plus a dash of Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay is left in contact with the skins for 3.5 weeks, giving a nice raspy texture to the pear and apricot fruit, with a herbal bitters edge." Decanter Magazine
"Pale orange. Light Muscat nose and just enough texture to qualify as an orange wine! Pretty and off dry and easy to like."
15.5/20 points, Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, March 2023
Food Match: Indian curry (particularly those rich in turmeric, cardamom and/or cinnamon - Kashmir, Madras and Kerala), chickpeas, roast chicken, Moroccan tagines (and anything savoury with orange or apricot fruitiness), saffron-spiced bases. Also try with pickled dishes such as Kimchi, raw almonds & walnuts, strong cheeses, really dark chocolate.
