Graupert Grauburgunder by Meinklang is one of their more premium natural wines made in Burgenland with Pinot Gris grapes, aka Grauburgunder & Pinot Gris.

 When made into an orange wine, Pinot Gris turns a vibrant colour due to the colour of the pink-grey skins

This vineyard of the same Graupert name is unpruned and untamed, meaning the vines find their own balance. Meinklang say that "Graupert proudly rises from the wilderness of its pruning-free vineyard. The mash-fermented Pinot Gris impresses with a variety of aromas and density and pure enjoyment. The wine walks the tightrope between impetuous rusticity and graceful grace."

We adored the vibrancy of this orange wine, which gave off lovely notes of stewed rhubarb, candied ginger, orange zest, herbs and apricot. A real treat!

WHAT IS ORANGE WINE?

Orange wines are actually white wines, but with a different winemaking process - they’re made by fermenting the juice with the grape skins, which is mostly done with red wines, not white. This extra step adds tannins, flavor, and a unique color to the wine.
Because of the skin contact, orange wines tend to have more herbal, aromatic notes, and they can also have a bit of bitterness depending on the grape, how long the skins are left in contact with the juice, and the vessel used for maturation. Unlike most white wines, they can also feature tannins (which are formed from the skins, which white wines do not use). Orange wines are a style that brings out some really interesting flavors that many people adore for their unique properties, whether easy going or complex.
