Description

Sundowner means a drink that you enjoy in the late afternoon, around those few minutes when the sun disappears behind the horizon – a feeling that reminds us of this complex and structured orange wine. Juicy, peachy with white floral notes and stunning acidity. Spicy, experimental, complex.
