François Ducrot – La Vie en Orange is a naturally fermented orange wine from Languedoc, made from organically grown Roussanne, Marsanne, and Viognier cultivated on limestone soils. After around two weeks of skin contact and a gentle direct press, the wine rests three months on fine lees in stainless steel, preserving freshness and purity.
It shows a pale-gold colour with a subtle orange tint. The nose offers apple, pear, and orange blossom, layered with hints of dried nuts, peach, and lychee. On the palate, it’s dry, textured, and bright, with crisp acidity, delicate green-tea tannins, and a savoury, mineral-driven finish.
A refreshing, food-friendly orange wine — perfect with salty dishes, soft cheeses, seafood, or light meats.
Serve chilled (6–11 °C).
