Took a little while to open, but very interesting and pretty. And a great back label.

Entry level orange wine. Good but not too funky.

Orange wine is fascinating, and has a coppery feeling to it that I quite like.

Looks funkier than it tastes. Surprisingly easy on the palate.

What you could almost call the epic rant on the massive rear label of this wine is itself worth the price of admission, which I think was around $17. This stuff is cloudy and funky and unrepentantly "natural" and really pissed off some winos who frequent my facebook feed a few months ago, basically, I guess, because it is one thing to be a natural wine and quite another to run an almost aggressive manifesto of non-interventionism on a queen-sized sheet of a back label. Nothing crisp or clean about this but it is awesome and unique and something like having a picnic in a musty hayloft with someone you aren't married to and whose language you might not even speak.
