Ovum Big Salt “Orange Rose” (Dundee, Oregon) 2024

If you love ORANGE wines (white wines fermented on their skins), or wanted to explore what they’re all about – Big Salt “Orange Rose” is a good place to start. It has a sunset cranberry color that comes as a result of Pinot gris skins being blended with the tangerine hues of Big Salt. Its aromas remind me of a carrot orange creamsicle stirred into a cup of hibiscus tea, steeped with autumnal spices. Roasted carrot, ginger, red apple skin are on the palate.
