GULP HABLO ORANGE 1L

Gulp Hablo Orange is a natural-style Spanish “orange wine” (skin-contact white wine) known for its minimal-intervention winemaking, vibrant fruit character, and slightly rustic, textural profile. It is typically produced in large-format 1-liter bottles and designed for easy, casual drinking with a natural wine philosophy.

Appearance

1. Deep golden to amber orange color
2. Slight haze (unfiltered or lightly filtered style)
3. Natural variation in color between batches

Aroma

Expressive and slightly wild, with notes of:

1. Orange peel and tangerine zest
2. Dried apricot
3. Peach skin
4. Chamomile
5. Herbal tea (green tea, rooibos)
6. Light floral honey
7. Subtle nutty and earthy tones

Palate

Textural, dry, and fruit-driven with a natural wine edge:

1. Citrus (orange, mandarin, lemon peel)
2. Stone fruit (apricot, peach)
3. Light tannic grip from extended skin contact
4. Herbal and tea-like bitterness
5. Subtle oxidative nuttiness in some batches
6. Crisp but slightly grippy finish

The texture is more structured than a typical white wine due to skin contact, giving it a light tannin presence similar to a very soft red wine.

Body & Style

1. Body: Light to medium
2. Sweetness: Dry
3. Acidity: Bright to medium-high
4. Tannins: Light (from skin contact)
5. Filtration: Often unfiltered or minimally filtered
6. Alcohol: Typically around 11–13% ABV (varies by vintage)

Food Pairing

Works especially well with flavorful, savory, or earthy dishes:

1. Tapas and small plates
2. Roasted vegetables
3. Aged cheeses (Manchego, Parmesan)
4. Grilled seafood
5. Spiced dishes (Moroccan, Middle Eastern cuisine)
6. Charcuterie
7. Mushroom-based dishes

Serving Temperature

1. Best served slightly chilled: 10–12°C (50–54°F)
2. Avoid over-chilling to preserve aromatics and texture
