FIO, Orange Juice “Jo Jo” 2022

Produktbeskrivelse

“The JoJo, as it is referred to on the front label (the vintage is provided on the back label), with lot number F 23-6 is an orange wine made from Riesling harvested in the Freudenburg sector of the Piesporter Treppchen. The grapes are whole bunch fermented for 4 weeks before being partly pressed and partly de-stemmed to continue their fermentation in both traditional Fuder casks and stainless steel. It was bottled unfiltered and without any SO2 added. This yellow-orange-colored wine offers an aromatic and quite refined nose of cherry, violet, prune, jasmine, cassis, minty herbs, and smoke. The wine is zesty and herbal on the palate, with just a little tannic presence. The length is superb. This combines the aromatics of a red wine (think even Pinot Noir) and the freshness of Riesling and will please lovers of fine orange wines” 91p. Mosel Fine Wines, Sept. 2025

Jo Jo er portugisisk slang for når noget ikke alene er godt, men fremragende. Der er tale om en specialitet på Riesling druen, nemlig en orange vin. Det er muligvis den eneste af sin slags i verden. Håndmacereret i 10 dage for at trække farve, aroma og tannin ud af skallerne, og derefter lagret i 12 måneder,
Det er en meget lys orangevin, men smagen og strukturen har klare referencer til orangevin. Riesling druerne stammer fra de ældste vinstokke på topvinmarken Piesporter Goldtröpfchen.
