Natalie's Score: 93/100

Muddy Water 2019 is a skin ferment New Zealand orange wine. Produced from a blend of Gewurztraminer, Riesling, Saint Laurent and Gruner Vetliner wine grapes, look for soft orange, baking spice, dried citrus, fine herb and floral flavours finishing with a chalky minerality and chewy tannins. A very different and interesting wine. Chill, drink or hold.

Skin Ferment food pairings: salads, quiches, flatbreads.

Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

This is a white wine blend of Gewurztraminer, Riesling, St. Laurent and Gruner Veltliner fermented on its skins for one month, extracting a lot of flavour, body, and tannins. Aromas of orange marmalade and earl grey tea. Dry, with some grippy but soft tannins, lots of ripe orange flavours along with hints of orange zest, and warm baking spices. Enjoy with warmly spiced dishes, or bold, flavoured cheese, such as a caraway gouda.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
