Gilbert Chon "Tango" Vin Orange, VDF, 2022
This is the first orange wine from celebrated Loire producer Gilbert Chon & Fils, a family estate now on its 13th generation of winemakers in the heart of the Loire Valley’s Muscadet region. A 50/50 blend of sustainably farmed Chardonnay and Sauvignon Gris grapes fermented on their skins, it pours a luminous amber-orange hue with golden reflections. The bouquet delivers fresh stone fruit—think peach and apricot—while the palate is elegantly textured: vibrant notes of grapefruit and orange peel, framed by fine tannins and a gently spicy finish.
