CHATEAU SAINT-CYRGUES, SALAMANDRE ORANGE 2023
Salamandre Orange is a specific wine produced by Chateau de Saint Cyrgues, a winery in France's southern Rhône Valley region. It is an orange wine made from white grapes undergoing extended skin contact during fermentation.
It's a great and gentle entry-level orange wine. Ten days on skins, this is a floral note and flavours of peach and summer fruits and a little bit of grip.
The Château Saint Cyrgues estate is in the South of France, near Nimes. The estate is over a hundred years old but keeps up with the times as it is certified organic.
The specific grape varieties used in Salamandre Orange may vary depending on the vintage and the winemaker's choices. Chateau de Saint Cyrgues is known for growing traditional Rhône Valley grape varieties such as Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, and Viognier.
Salamandre Orange is known for its distinctive orange colour and flavour profile, combining white and red wine characteristics. It may exhibit flavours of dried fruits, floral notes, nuttiness, and sometimes a slight oxidative character. The texture can be slightly grippy due to the tannins extracted from the grape skins.
