Skin Contact Orange, Rin-Tin-Tin, Portugal
Rin Tin Tin Skin Contact Orange Wine — Portuguese Orange Wine
Rin Tin Tin Skin Contact Orange is a Portuguese orange wine from the Lisboa region, made from the Vital grape and fermented on its skins to give it that gorgeous amber-gold colour and a texture you don't get from regular white wine. If you've been curious about orange wine but didn't know where to start, this is a brilliant, affordable introduction — interesting enough to impress, approachable enough to actually enjoy.
What makes it orange
Orange wine isn't made from oranges — it's white wine made like a red. The white grapes (in this case Vital, a Portuguese variety) are left in contact with their skins during fermentation, which gives the wine its golden-amber colour, extra body and a slightly grippy texture. Think of it as white wine with the volume turned up — more flavour, more complexity, more to talk about. The 2024 vintage from Lisboa's sun-soaked vineyards has the warmth and character you'd expect from Portugal, with enough acidity to keep it lively.
A label you'll want to keep
Rin Tin Tin's labels are bold, fun and the kind of thing you leave on the kitchen counter because they look too good to throw away. The orange wine bottle is no exception — it's a proper shelf-piece that earns its place in any wine-lover's collection. At Natty, we believe the way a bottle looks matters, and this one delivers.

Their range covers everything from classic Vinho Verde to this skin-contact orange, all with eye-catching labels and a focus on making Portuguese wine fun rather than formal. The wines are distributed in the UK through CN Foods and are gaining a following among independent bottle shops for their combination of quality, value and shelf appeal.
We stock Rin Tin Tin because the wines are genuinely good, the bottles look brilliant, and they prove that interesting wine doesn't have to cost a fortune. See all Rin Tin Tin wines at Natty.

Curious wine drinkers who want to try something different without risking a weird bottle. People who like natural wine and want to explore skin-contact styles.

Frequently asked questions
What does Rin Tin Tin Skin Contact Orange taste like?
Fuller and more textured than a standard white wine, with stone fruit, dried apricot and a touch of honey, balanced by bright acidity. The skin contact gives it a slight grip — almost like a very light red — and the finish has a pleasant bitterness. It's dry, complex and very food-friendly.
What is orange wine?
Orange wine is white wine made using red wine techniques — the white grapes are fermented on their skins, which gives the wine its amber-orange colour, extra body and a slightly tannic texture. It's one of the oldest winemaking methods in the world, originating in Georgia thousands of years ago. Despite the colour, it's not sweet — most orange wines are dry.
