Description
In a nutshell:
A ripe, rounded, and easy-going organic orange wine from Manchuela in Spain, packed with juicy citrus, apricot, and a subtly savoury twist.
The lowdown:
If you're after an organic orange wine that ticks all the right natural wine boxes - and doesnt cost a fortune - this is for you. Biodynamic, with very low added sulphur, it's a 50-50 blend of Grenache Blanc and Gris, and theres even a delicate pinkish hue to it. Fermentation on its skins in large clay amphorae brings extra depth, light tannins, and a lovely bit of colour, with naturally high acidity keeping things fresh and balanced. It's punchy and full of character, with aromas of stone fruit, apricot, citrus, and a subtle aniseed note in the background. The palate is rounded yet lively, giving concentrated flavours with a refreshing, savoury edge and a mineral finish. Packed with flavour, structure, and charm, it's a great little orange wine - and one that feels far more polished than the price tag suggests.
The Producer:
Rosalia Molina, winemaker at and owner of Bodegas Altolandon, one of Spain's highest altitude wineries, crafts organic wines that truly capture the essence of DO Manchuela. At 1,100 metres above sea level, in central eastern Spain, her vineyards experience extreme day-night temperature swings, promoting even ripening and retaining natural acidity. Committed to biodiversity, Rosalia welcomes chickens, sheep, and pigs from local farms to roam freely, while using only natural fertilisers. The grapes are hand-harvested and vinified with minimal intervention, relying on native yeasts. Aged in clay amphora and French oak, her wines reflect a balance of texture, complexity, and the unique character of this high-altitude region. The result of all this? A range of accessible, well-made organic wines that offer great value without skimping on quality.
When to drink:
Great as an aperitif with nuts (especially almonds) and olives, but try with baked fish, and especially North African and Middle Eastern lamb or goat based dishes.
Suitable for Vegans, Biodynamic
