An exceptionally good example of orange wine at a bargain price. Made from 60-year-old Moscatel de Alexandria bush vines, it has an intense perfume of orange peel, dried apricots, quince and florals. The characterful, rich, creamy palate is offset by a tight grippy structure and balancing freshness.
