Wonderfully lively blend from volcanic soils in Lazio, lees aged, made by nuns! Chamomile, almond, fennel, green apple and citrus, salt and rocks…wasn’t long before there was nun left.

Absolutely delicious baby Bea orange wine. Gorgeous gold hue, apricot, orange zest and pith, fennel, yeast from lees aging. Utterly drinkable and accessible

Rating this on an “orange wine” scale - much more closed and mineral than the generous style of other orange wines. Fun change up.

Baby Orange wine with an intriguing story! Apricots, white flowers, chamomile & appropriately a bit of orange rind! went perfectly with local grouper, faro, and roasted cauliflower!

Opens with orange peel and white pepper, cider, tea, all sorts of florals. Oxidative, tart and perfumed. Perfect trifecta in this beautiful amber wine.

Day two it is more prominently mineral, more lemon-focused citrus, and showing an aroma of brown bread. Really quite wonderful.

Trebbiano, Malvasia, Verdicchio, Grechetto. On lees for more than two weeks. Amber color, pronounced minerality, brine, dried apricot, honey, candied lime, bright tropical fruits, white pepper, earl grey tea, and acacia. Bone dry, med+ acid to balance the phenolic bitterness.

Tastes like a used earl grey tea bag, in a good way. Brown is the new orange? Decant
