BRUMA, Plan B Chardonnay (Orange), 2020
is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
BRUMA's Plan B Chardonnay takes you to the heart of the Orange Wine movement, where Chardonnay meets a bold, skin-contact style that reveals layers of flavor and complexity. In the 2020 vintage, this wine strays from the typical Chardonnay path, with extended skin contact lending a textured, tannic edge while still retaining the grape’s freshness and vibrancy.
On the nose, it’s an aromatic journey—ripe citrus, green apple, and a touch of orange zest greet you, but there's an intriguing depth as notes of dried herbs and a hint of spice emerge. The palate is rich, with the skin contact giving the wine a slight tannic bite that’s unusual for Chardonnay, yet perfectly balanced by bright acidity. The finish is long, with a lingering mineral edge that adds sophistication to its lively fruit character.
Plan B Chardonnay is perfect for those looking to explore something different. It pairs well with roasted vegetables, grilled seafood, or a fresh goat cheese salad. Whether you're sipping it now or letting it evolve, this Orange Chardonnay offers a refreshing alternative to the more conventional styles, making it a great conversation starter.
