[notes for RB 2019 Gittens Vineyard] Orange wine. Destemmed, 6 months on skin then 6 months aging in emphorae. Ex alnort-robert amphorae. Hazy and orange in color. Jasmine, Gatorade, white pepper, citrus, dried orange candy, sour cherry. High acidity, med tannins, med+ finish. Lovely texture on the palate. — 3 years ago

This is a big wine full of big contradictions. First of all, was not expecting a dark golden, almost orange hue. Had to look it up and was surprised by an SB with intense skin and malo aging. A pungent, sour nose. It’s not at all a turn off, the opposite really. At the front I get a brine, salt water character but that quickly turns into a giant sour apricot with a long lingering finish that transitions into unripe banana and spicy herbs. Medium to full body with loads of puckering acid. A unique and wildly different wine. — 7 years ago

Fun orange wine, 41/37/9/8/5 blend of Chenin Blanc, Pinot Gris, Albariño, Verdelho and Riesling. Looks like cherry skin-colored Rosé with excellent clarity, but these are all white varietals. Complex smear of flavors with a light tannin finish. Don’t think I’ve had anything like it, though that hint of Riesling is the bow on the package. Experimental and lovely. I admire its structure, almost dry, balanced but tannin-forward without excess, — 4 years ago
