When Josephine Perry entered the Margaret River Wine Show in 2014, her âSkinnieâ was met with confusion.
âSomeone pulled it out and said âthis is faultyâ and I said, âno, itâs an orange wineâ,â Perry recalls.
âIt is 100 per cent sav blanc but it is bright orange, fermented on skins in an amphora for up to five months, with no sulphur. It stumped them. They didnât have a category they could put my wines in.â
