Colour – White

‘What is orange natural wine?’ - the question we are asked most frequently on an average day at Wayward. Named for its colour, natural orange wine is made using white grapes, but vinified as one would a red. That means the skins stay on through the process, often the stalks and stems too, bleeding pigment into the wine and producing all manner of deep golden, amber, ochre hues in the glass.

This creates tannic structure too - which makes them more complex than your everyday white wine and coupled with their lifted aromatics you are in sensory overload territory.

Antonio Gismondi
Cerreto 2024

A delicate, weightless wine that seems to evaporate on the palate. The extraction is gentle and restrained, leaving the wine a pale gold with lifted aromas of floral blossom and white grapefruit pith, with just a hint of smokiness creeping through from the volcanic bedrock. Find out more.

Fabio Ferracane
Muffato Oxidative 2018

A callback to the old school Marsala of days gone by and a remarkable, completely natural phenomenon. Bone dry, the wine is a heady mix of all the complex flavours and textures that oxidation and flor-contact can bring. Fruits give way to woody hazelnut, toasted almond, turmeric and garam masala spice with crystals of salt, plus a little sweet vanilla from the barrel. Find out more.

Fabio Ferracane
Guanciabianca 2024

Fabio's entry-point Catarratto that blends grapes from both his sandy coastal vines and those from the valley, further inland. The 2024 shows a lovely sandy gold in the glass from brief skin maceration, and lends a little tannic grip. Find out more.

Antonio Gismondi
Pietre 2024
