WINERY REVIEW: According to Vivino, this wine is dry, acidic, and has a medium body. With the main flavors being citrus, lemon, apple, and tropical. According to this website, this wine would pair well with shellfish and goat's milk cheese.
WINE FOLLY: According to Wine Folly the primary flavors of this natural orange wine are bruised apple, jackfruit, linseed oil, juniper, and honey. With a taste profile of bone-dry, medium-full body, medium tannins, medium-high acidity, and 11.5-13.5% ABV. In terms of food pairing this wine would go well with roasted meats and resinous herbs such as sage and rosemary.
MY REVIEW: This was my first time trying a natural wine and I thought it was amazing. I highly recommend it, it was both smooth and had a light taste of pineapple. With notes of apples and tropical fruits. In my opinion a perfect combination. Although I didn't try it with food, I imagine it would pair nicely with a Chilean empanada.
