Ovum - Big Salt Orange Rosé 2022

OUT OF STOCK

Notify me when this product is available:

    Big Salt “Orange Rose” is nearly an equal blend of ramato style Pinot gris, and Big Salt Fermented & aged in neutral barrell.  The combination of these production methods left us with a wine that doesn’t look or smell like a rose – it isn’t as funky or extracted as an orange wine – it lives somewhere in between…or beyond?

    Big Salt "Orange Rosé" has a cranberry meets Sunny D color, perhaps due to the 14 day PG skin fermentation.  The Big Salt components that went into barrel saw anywhere from 8 hours of skin contact up to 3 days.  It’s aromas remind me of an orange creamsicle stirred into a cup of hibiscus tea steeped with autumnal spices.  There’s a heavy dose of galangal and roasted carrot notes on the palate, which has the grip and power of a gravely red wine.

    Big Salt “Orange Rose” on the surface is a fun wine, but hiding in the depths is a brooding root veg earthiness.  So, feel free to soak in the sunny, warm shallow waters, it’s nice there – but if curiosity pulls you to the deep end you may be rewarded with the earthly delights of Oregon terroir.
