Orange wine is becoming more and more popular, but it's not made from oranges! This wine is made from white grapes, but in a red style, meaning it's fermented on the skins before pressing. The skin contact gives the wine a beautiful color and rich flavor; something you'll definitely want to try at least once.
Contact is produced in partnership with Bin 707 Foodbar under the High Desert Wine Lab label, and is the house orange wine for Bin707 and Taco Party.

Winemaker Notes
Contact was made using Gewürztraminer grapes, in the way that reds are normally done - fermented on the skins. This skin contact results in an orange color and a fuller body than your everyday white wine.

I bought a bottle of this after doing a tasting at Carlson Vineyards this August. As orange wines grow in popularity I try to snag a bottle every time I see one. This was a no-brainer buy. It is balanced very well and has that unique taste that a good orange should have. Highly recommend!
