Riesling orange wines is surprisingly hard to come by considering that they are fairly common in Alsace and Germany; maybe because they are so well recognised as white wines? In any event, we are extremely pleased that Vincent Stoeffler decided to release Icarus in his growing selection of orange wines. 30 days of maceration on the skins produce a playful and delicious wine that might not scream out the identity of its grape variety but will keep you and your drinking partners thoroughly entertained. Concentrated yet fresh, an ideal aperitif. Serve chilled but not very cold (10-12c, about 30 -40 minutes in the fridge).
