A bold and distinctive addition to the Q.Lab range, this Orange Wine is crafted using extended skin contact to unlock the depth, texture and complexity of white grapes. Produced from a blend of Gouveio and Arinto, it is a wine that challenges convention — expressive, structured and unapologetically individual.
On the nose, it is highly aromatic, with notes of orange peel layered alongside warm spices of pepper and cardamom, complemented by a delicate hint of dried flowers. The profile is both intriguing and complex, offering a clear departure from traditional white wine styles.
The palate is fresh yet structured, with fine tannins derived from prolonged skin contact adding grip and texture. A well-balanced body is supported by subtle oak influence, leading to a long, persistent finish with savoury and spiced nuances.
Fermented naturally with whole bunches and aged in oak, this is a wine designed for those seeking something different — pairing particularly well with spiced and aromatic cuisines, from Asian to Middle Eastern and beyond.
Summary
A complex and characterful orange wine, combining citrus, spice and fine tannins with a long, structured finish — a distinctive and adventurous expression of the Douro.
