MEZZE & ORANGE WINE
The Mezze & Orange Wine Pairing
Service Description
This board highlights the contrast between two Mediterranean staples: Feta (tangy and crumbly) and Halloumi (meaty and dense). The Wine Match: Orange Wine The Technique: Also known as "skin contact" wine. It is made by fermenting white grapes on their skins—the same method used for red wine. The Flavor Profile: Orange wines are typically full-bodied with noticeable tannins. They can range from "funky" and earthy to bright and zippy. Why it works: Because Halloumi and Feta are high in salt, they need a wine with structure and "grip." Pairing Pro-Tips This wine is incredibly versatile for Mediterranean flavors. Serve alongside roasted eggplant, creamy tahini dishes, and grilled meats for a balanced, sophisticated spread.
