Maloof Where Ya PJs At? White Blend (Orange/Skin Contact)
Varietal: White Blend
Bottle Size: 750 mL
Region: Oregon
Maloof Wines is owned and operated by husband-and-wife team, Ross Maloof and Brittany "Bee" Selman.
80% skin contact Pinot Gris, 20% Riesling
The gris was fermented on the skins for 21 days. A small portion of that (maybe 20ish %) was fermented via carbonic maceration in a separate bin. The two lots of gris were pressed off together and put into neutral oak. The Riesling was direct pressed and fermented in neutral oak barrels. Once the Riesling went dry (January), we blended all of the wine together and put back into the barrel, where it went through ML. Bottled without fining or filtration. Small sulfur add at bottling.
Production: 130 cases
*Natural and Organic
Staff Review:
"Oh. My. Gosh. This darling orange (skin contact) wine is a tasty pinot gris/riesling blend. Surprisingly big on berries and melons! Take a chilled bottle on a date night or keep cozy in your PJs and binge watch some of your faves (I vote for option 2)."
"This crisp & funky orange wine leaves a tart yet smooth taste with notes of strawberry, cranberry, and a hint of citrus. Enjoy with a spicy fish to remind you of warmer days ahead!"
