ORDINARY ORANGE 2023 [YMW2024.4]
ORDINARY ORANGE 2023 [YMW2024.4]
Grapes: (Sabel and Delaware from Yamagata Prefecture)
This wine was made by fermenting Yamagata Prefecture's "Seibel" and "Delaware" grapes with the skins on, with the intention of creating something different from the usual natural wines. It was fermented at low temperature for two months (60 days), and the paddle was added 2-3 times during this period, but by adding the paddle, the wine was left alone, preventing rapid sugar fermentation, allowing for more cold maceration and encouraging the transfer of the aromas of the skins into the liquid. This time, the wine was also properly fermented in a tank before lactic acid fermentation in the bottle.
The 2023 harvest is dominated by Seibel grapes, and you can enjoy not only the aroma but also the taste. Instead of adjusting the alcohol content by adding sugar, we used a long fermentation period and lactic acid fermentation, which I think shows our basic brewing philosophy of adding nothing and taking nothing away. Now, MLF is occurring again in the bottle, and when you open it, you will hear a little "swish" (MLF may cause floating objects on the upper liquid surface, but it is harmless to the human body). It has a very familiar taste as an "orange wine", so please enjoy it with a wide variety of dishes.
