Actually the 'marc' is a wet cake of crushed grapes after the first  
pressing.
Nothing orange about it.
Irony is a subtle weapon - only those who confuse it with sarcasm  
think it a blunt instrument. 'Heavily ironic' is oxymoronic.
I don't think that there is a smiley that indicates an 'irony  
warning'. After all, most of us don't need one (and the rest don't  
count).
