šØš± Orange, Naranjo Torontel Loncomilla Maturana
Country: Chile | Region: Maule Valley (Loncomilla)
Grapes: Torontel (heritage vines, ~80 years old)
Style: Orange Wine
š Tangy, Textural, and Uniquely Chilean
Crafted in tiny quantities from nearly 80-year-old vines in the remote Loncomilla sub-region, this is a rare orange wine that highlights Chileās winemaking heritage. Extended skin contact with Torontelās pinkish skins lends both its amber hue and its remarkable depth.
š· In the Glass
Amber-orange with pink glintsāvivid and unfiltered.
š On the Nose
Tangy and aromatic, showing notes of dried apricot, candied orange peel, chamomile, and subtle herbal nuances.
š· On the Palate
Complex and textural, with 8 months of skin contact giving layers of citrus zest, stone fruit, and tea-like tannins. A savoury edge balances the fruit, finishing tangy, earthy, and persistent.
š½ Food Pairing
Excellent with aged cheeses, charcuterie, Moroccan tagines, or spiced Middle Eastern dishes. Versatile with tapas and sharing plates.
ā³ Ageing Potential
Best enjoyed now for its energy and vibrancy, but will evolve gracefully over 3ā5 years.
š« Why Youāll Love It
Naranjo Torontel is a striking expression of Chileās old-vine heritageāauthentic, artisanal, and brimming with character. A wine for the adventurous, offering a glimpse into a rare and ancient style.
