About this Event

Despite its name, orange wine isn’t made from oranges—it’s a centuries-old style of white wine made by fermenting grapes with their skins, giving it a rich texture, bold flavors, and a stunning amber hue. But what does it actually taste like, and how is it different from white or red wines?

Join instructor Jaime Brown as she delves into the world of skin-contact white wines, exploring their history, production methods, and key regions. You’ll discover how orange wine is made, what to expect in the glass, and the best food pairings to highlight its unique character. If you’re someone who loves exploring new styles or just getting into wine, this class is the perfect introduction to the magic of orange wine!
