In recent years, orange wine-wine made with white grapes that have contact with their skins during production-has emerged as a trendy alternative to the usual red versus white debate in a similar vein to rosé. And whether you're personally turned onto orange wine or not, here's a sign that at least one wine professional thinks the trend has staying power: A permanent store dedicated exclusively to orange wine is opening in Manhattan.
Beyond her credentials as an orange wine expert and natural wine sommelier who's worked at places like the Michelin-starred restaurants Aska and Aldea, Doreen Winkler has also proven that orange wine in itself can be a viable business venture. In 2019, she launched Orange Glou-billed as "the world's first orange wine club." The new Orange Glou store takes that general concept-a curated selection of the best orange wines from around the world-and simply puts it into a brick-and-mortar location where people can make purchases as their leisure.

That orange wine....
After imbibing a few over a week’s time the user has side effects: turning orange and feeling the urge to say Make America Great Again. CDC is looking into this.
Just one more reason I don’t miss NYC.
I LOVE Fanta orange! Grape too!
oooh! That looks like imported Fanta with cane sugar an’ everything!
Orange wine bad.......................
Its bad enough the wine is orange, but opened in NYC?. I give it 6 months tops.
“Would you like to smell the bottle cap?”
drankin good in da hood..
I was addicted to Diet Orange Crush but it appears to have disappeared and Sunkist diet doesn’t cut it for me. It appears there is a Fanta diet but I’ve never seen it in stock.
Ha! You beat me to it!

Doreen is limiting her customer base. All her eggs in one basket isn't good business.
I witnessed this in Ponape
Orange wines are made by allowing the juice from white wine grapes to soak and ferment with the skins still on. By contrast, rosé is the inverse of orange wine. It's made from red grapes that have had their skins removed early in the winemaking process
they like sakau too
try elgin winerys “bisbee copper”
I read somewhere that Orange Wine is a sign of the end times.
Was that the Muppet Movie with Steve Martin as the waiter? Didn't see it.
For a true sommelier with a cork to smell they say about the bad ones "Corked wine gives off a smell that is similar to a dank moldy basement, a wet newspaper or a wet dog."
Sounds like those purple haired muscular women in the lesbian contingent at LGBTQ marches. Try not to be downwind.
