Cirelli Orange

Conceived by Francesco Cirelli and his partner Michela in 2003, Agricola Cirelli is a fully organic farm situated 8 kilometres from the Adriatic Sea near the village of Atri. Formerly a successful entrepreneur, Cirelli bottled his first wine in 2008. Sitting in the hills of Colline Teramane, the 23 hectare estate also produces figs, garlic, olive oil, and grains. They even raise a flock of geese. A rising star in Abruzzo, Cirelli has quickly distinguished himself by adhering to organic and biodynamic principles, and ageing a selection of his wines in amphora vessels. Designed by himself, and made in Tuscany, the amphora are capped with unique steel seals that prevent oxidation and preserve freshness. In the winery he uses only indigenous yeasts, and no fining or filtration. Additionally, his production is fully vegan friendly.

Pale Kool-Aid orange in the glass, on the nose this wine has fresh aromas of nectarine marmalade, orange peel, neroli, almond and linseed. The palate is super friendly! Crisp acidity and finely woven tannins are matched by citrus fruit flavors that linger into the refreshing finish. An orange wine with serious crowd appeal.
