Ami Ami "Vin Orange" Box, Languedoc-Roussillon, France 2023

FROM AMI AMI:

THE WINE: Our Opulent Vin Orange is 100% Grenache blanc which has had a little skin contact. The grapes are gently foot treaded and left on the skins for up to 6 hours before gently pressed. The wine is aged for a short period in stainless steel before being "bottled" young and fresh to preserve all the beautiful aromatics. The vineyards are planted between 850 - 1200 feet elevation in the foothills of the Pyrenees Mountains close to the Spanish border. Grape growing here dates back to Greek and Roman times with Roman bridges and aqueducts still lining the horizon.

THE PRODUCER: Brought to you by two friends with 3 decades between them, making wine around the world. They sought to offer the best at home, where amazing quality is casual. After living and working in France, we felt inspired by the culture, where incredible wine isn't only poured for special occasions or perfectly plated pairings. It's an effortless, everyday thing, when you want to. Enjoyed unscripted, unplanned, when the mood strikes. Wine without rules. When it came to bottling, the carbon impact of moving glass across oceans caught our attention. Enter box— A convenient and conscious choice with great positive impact. It's the small things that count.
