    That was a fast repost. 16:26 Orange wines might be all the rage now but in Portugal is as been a craft since over a century ago. The process there is called Curtimenta and you can find dozens of amazing examples being executed flawlessly since the early 80's. Anselmo Mendes' Curtimenta is still my favourite but plenty to go around from different Portuguese regions.

    I think Orange Wine aka white wine aged on its skins is a one of the ancient wine styles found in many winemaking regions. The one that comes to my mind first though, is Georgia! ☺️

    @@NoSediment I was surprised to find a Q&A on this channel. There don't seem to be enough online videos in Latvian or Lithuanian so one question to answer next time is could you make videos in Latvian, captioned in English so that fellow Latvians can watch in their own language. Your people must cope with another language being spoken as soon as their leave their own country, so those living abroad may well be ticked if a fellow Latvian bothers to make native-tongue videos.
