Pick of the Week:
Gulp Hablo Orange Wine
La Mancha, Spain 2023

Regular: $19.79
This week: $16 (through Mon., July 7th)

Nestled on the high-desert plateaus of La Mancha, Bodegas Parra Jiménez is renowned for its production of wines crafted from a blend of native and international grape varietals grown in certified organic and sustainable vineyards. The winery produces wines that are not only elegant but structured, reflecting the unique terroir of the region.

The high desert climate with a large diurnal temperature swing from hot days to cold nights allows the grapes to develop ripe, fruity flavors while maintaining bright acidity. Rainfall is almost non-existent leading to thick grape skins and concentrated flavors. Winemaker Pablo Parra tapped legendary Spanish winemaker, Juan Antonio Ponce, his mentor, to help craft the Gulp Hablo line.

This juicy, aromatic blend of equal parts Verdejo and Sauvignon Blanc is a common combination for the white wines of the region, but here it is made into an orange wine via a week of maceration on the grape skins. Aromatics of orange blossom and tropical jackfruit, dried citrus peels, tea and preserved apricots on the ye**ty, textured palate. Bottled unfiltered thus retaining more flavors and aromas. Best served at 53-57 degrees. One liter bottle.

Pairs well with: grilled meats, fried chicken, spicy sausages, braised pork tenderloin with herbs, grilled fish or octopus, baked salmon, sautéed vegetables with Asian noodles, Thai curry, spicy Korean BBQ-style pork, Indian curry, Moroccan chicken tagine, asian-style salad or semi-hard and hard sheep's milk cheeses like Manchego, Idiazábal, Ossau-Iraty, and Parmigiano Reggiano.
