Tardana is an almost forgotten variety from around Requena. Verónica Romero ferments it for about 30 days on the skins, hence the orange colour with golden glints. Pear, honey, dried peach and orange peel on the nose, with a little vanilla and spice from the oak portion; juicy and approachable on the palate, with light structure and a spicy finish.
With rice dishes, grilled fish, aged sheep's cheese, grilled vegetables or food with Middle Eastern spices. If you are trying orange wine for the first time, the Muda is a better start than the more structured El Carbonero.
