Bedoba, Orange Wine

Georgia, 2021

If you’re curious about orange wine, this is a brilliant place to start. Made from white grapes fermented on their skins, it has more texture and depth than a typical white, without tipping into the wild and funky extremes the style can sometimes bring. Expect layers of dried apricot, orange peel, and honey, lifted by gentle herbal notes and a subtle tannic grip from extended skin contact. It’s vibrant, complex, and seriously drinkable—serve lightly chilled and let it open in the glass.
