Felicette First Contact Orange Wine is a bright, skin-contact blend of Grenache Gris and Muscat, offering zesty citrus, floral lift, and exotic spice with a crisp, mineral-driven finish.
Felicette First Contact is an expressive and finely crafted orange wine from the schist-rich soils of the Agly Valley near Maury in southern France. Co-fermented Grenache Gris and Muscat grapes undergo 20 days of skin contact, resulting in a textured, aromatic wine that balances freshness with complexity. Bursting with the bright zest of citrus peel, it opens up with layers of delicate florals and sweet spice as it warms. The Mediterranean climate and low-yielding vines contribute to the wine's focused acidity, clean structure, and distinct minerality. Refined yet lively, it's a captivating introduction to the world of orange wines.
