Winemaker Notes
This orange wine is crafted through a week of maceration on the skins, offering aromatics of orange blossom and tropical jackfruit. The palate is moderately tannic, with notes of dried citrus peel, tea, and preserved apricot layered over a yeasty, textured profile.
The Moors gave it the name, ‘Manxa,’ which fittingly means ‘parched earth.’ La Mancha, the largest Spanish wine producing region in all of Spain, is one of its hottest and driest. Sturdy and drought-resistant white varieietes like Airen, Viura and Verdejo thrive in this environment.
