The 'Orancio Expression' by SAVOIA introduces a distinctive blend of citrus and fruit flavors, infused with spices inspired by the historic Silk Road, including ginger, saffron, and pomegranate. Building on these vibrant flavors, the inclusion of orange wine enriches the bitter-sweet (amaro-dolce) profile, offering a refreshing and balanced aftertaste. Additionally, notes of "bitter orange, lime, and bergamot harmonize with aromatic herbs such as cape aloe, gentian, and rhubarb, creating a rich and multi-dimensional flavor experience."
Drawing inspiration from ancient winemaking techniques, the Orancio Expression reflects a tradition dating back over 8,000 years. Specifically, it pays homage to "the historic production of orange wines in terracotta amphorae, a method that originated in Georgia and has endured through the centuries."
In discussing this unique offering, founder Giuseppe Gallo emphasizes its role as a tribute to Italian winemaking heritage, blending eastern spices and western citrus elements for a truly sophisticated tasting experience.
