2021 Orangette Vermentino – A Refreshing Organic Sparkling Wine from California

Discover the unique charm of the 2021 Orangette Vermentino, a distinctive sparkling wine crafted by The Piquette Project in California. Made from organically farmed Vermentino grapes sourced from Lodi, this wine offers a refreshing and innovative take on traditional winemaking.

The process begins with skin-macerated Vermentino grape must, which is gently infused with water for two days before being blended with unfermented Vermentino juice to kickstart fermentation. This method ensures a vibrant, lively character in every sip. After four months of aging in stainless steel, the wine undergoes a second fermentation at bottling, enhanced by the addition of organic beet sugar and apricot purée. The result? A naturally effervescent, low-alcohol (7% ABV) sparkling wine that’s both light and flavorful.

Perfect for those seeking a healthier, lower-alcohol alternative, the 2021 Orangette Vermentino is free from added sulfur, making it an excellent choice for wine enthusiasts who prefer a cleaner, more natural taste. Its bright acidity and subtle fruit notes make it ideal for casual gatherings, brunches, or as a refreshing aperitif.
