DESCRIPTION

The Orange Rare from Château Maris is a distinctive skin-contact white wine crafted in the Languedoc. Produced from Grenache Gris grown on limestone and clay soils, the grapes are fermented on their skins, giving the wine its amber hue and unique texture. This natural approach highlights purity, balance, and aromatic complexity. Unfined and minimally filtered, it offers an authentic expression of terroir and winemaking philosophy. Vibrant yet structured, this orange wine is both modern and rooted in ancient traditions, offering a rare tasting experience.

EYE

This wine displays a luminous amber-gold color with copper glints, reflecting its skin-contact vinification.

NOSE

The bouquet is expressive and layered, with aromas of dried orange peel, apricot, wild herbs, and subtle floral notes, lifted by a touch of spice.

MOUTH

On the palate, it is textured and lively, delivering flavors of stone fruits, citrus zest, and tea-like tannins. Fresh acidity brings balance, while a gentle grip on the finish highlights its originality.

PAIRING

Orange Rare pairs beautifully with Mediterranean dishes, roasted vegetables, spiced poultry, or aged cheeses. Its structure also makes it an excellent partner for Asian cuisine and aromatic herbs.

Languedoc-Roussillon

Languedoc-Roussillon is France's largest wine region, a sunny Mediterranean land of great diversity and value, from bold red blends and sweet Muscats to sparkling Limoux and crisp Picpoul.

Geographic position: Southern France, along the Mediterranean coast from the Rhône delta to the Spanish border, across the Gard, Hérault, Aude and Pyrénées-Orientales departments, between the sea, the Cévennes and the Pyrenees, covering more than 500,000 acres of vines.

Origin & history: Greek and Roman settlers planted the first vineyards, and Narbonne was one of Rome's first colonies in Gaul. For centuries the region produced bulk wine, but since the 1980s a revolution in quality has made it one of France's most dynamic areas. Roussillon, once part of Catalonia, became French in 1659.

Main appellations & varieties: Languedoc, Pic Saint-Loup, Terrasses du Larzac, Minervois, Corbières, Saint-Chinian, Faugères, Fitou, Picpoul de Pinet, Limoux, Côtes du Roussillon, Collioure, Banyuls and Maury, plus IGP Pays d'Oc. Grapes include Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Carignan and Cinsault.

Food specialties: Cassoulet from Castelnaudary, Bouzigues oysters, brandade de morue from Nîmes, tielle from Sète, Collioure anchovies, Roquefort, and crème catalane.
