Viña Echeverría, 'No es Pituko', Valle de Curicó, Orange 2023

Tasting notes - No Es Pituko Orange displays a slightly cloudy appearance and offers an aromatic profile of peach, tropical fruits, and buttery notes. On the palate, it exhibits a lively and textured character with flavours of orange peel, mandarin, and lime. The finish is zesty and refreshing, balanced by natural acidity.

"No es Pituko," meaning "it ain't fancy" in Chilean slang, aptly describes the natural vinification process .This orange wine is made with minimal intervention. The Sauvignon Blanc grapes are fermented with wild yeasts in stainless steel tanks and undergo a 60- day maceration period. This extended skin contact gives the wine its amber colour and subtle tannins. No sulphites are added, and the wine is bottled unfiltered and unfined which may result in a slightly hazy appearance.
