Gray wax = Orange wine! Destemmed chardonnay whole berry fermented on the skins in a puncheon. What? Shares a profile with other skin contact whites, but is so precise, refined and elegant. The perfect thing with pork chops to topped with cranberry/apricot chutney. Speaks volumes, but without raising its voice. Once in a lifetime pleasure to drink this - thanks @Max Kogod!

Gray wax. Hand destemmed Chardonnay into puncheon to ferment. Then pressed dry into 225 L barrels to age. Topped up.

Maison Pierre Overnoy Arbois Pupillin 2010 Chardonnay Smoky, golden, honey, hints at Amber in colour. The sediment that you usually find down the side of old(ish) reds seems in-flux here, as you lift the bottle to the light the sediment shifts like a vinous DNA strand, a rare sight. Nose is subtle but with plenty of depth. Quince jelly, smoky honey, curry leaf, apple/treacle/pecan tart, apple sauce but with an overriding, roughhewn rockiness to its character. In the mouth there is complexity but it's more about texture and mouthfeel than well defined fruits. Although this is mineral, refreshing with high acidity there is an incredibly appealing richness too. Monolithic is not a word that I would often use for a wine but it seems to sit well here, there are few contours or subtle intricacy. It will be fascinating to see how this ages
