hristina Orange is a lively, natural orange wine from Austria’s Carnuntum region, crafted by Christina Netzl using organically farmed grapes and minimal intervention techniques. Made primarily from Chardonnay (often blended with local varieties), the wine undergoes extended skin contact—typically around three to four weeks—giving it its signature amber hue and gentle tannic grip.
The profile is bright and textured, offering notes of orange peel, stone fruit, citrus zest, and subtle herbal tones layered with a lightly grippy, tea-like structure. Balanced acidity keeps it fresh, while the skin contact adds depth and complexity without overwhelming heaviness.
Unfined, unfiltered, and only lightly sulfured, this is a clean yet expressive orange wine that bridges the gap between white and red styles. It pairs especially well with aromatic cuisines, roasted poultry, and seafood dishes, or can be enjoyed on its own as a versatile, conversation-starting pour.
