Pet-nat Rosé BIO

A sparkling rosé made by the pét-nat method from an old, forgotten vineyard where we are still not sure of the full mix of varieties. We farm it biodynamically. The wine was bottled during its first fermentation and finished fermenting in the bottle, so the bubbles form naturally, with no second fermentation and no added sugar. Pale raspberry color and a fine bead. An aperitif ready the moment you open it.

A volcano in a bottle

Pet-nat Rosé one continuous fermentation

A naturally sparkling wine that finishes fermenting right in the bottle. No added sugar, no added bubbles, just a fermentation that finds its own pressure in the glass. A beautifully risky method, a beautiful result.

Pet-nat in its natural habitat

Méthode ancestrale is older than Champagne and far less forgiving. The young wine is bottled while still fermenting, and the fermentation finishes on the sugar the wine carries from the vineyard. No additions.

We take particular care that our Pet-nat opens without turning into a geyser in a restaurant. The pressure in the bottle is tuned with sommeliers in mind.

Anatomy of a single fermentation

  1. Step 01

    Foot trodden, short contact

    The dark skinned varieties are trodden by foot and get short contact with the skins. That is why the wine is pink, not red. No packet yeasts and no sulfur.

  2. Step 02

    Bottled during fermentation

    The wine is bottled while a small amount of sugar still remains in it. The bottle becomes the final fermentation vessel.

  3. Step 03

    Tlak na mieru someliérov

    The pressure in the bottle is tuned so it opens in a controlled way, with no race to the restaurant ceiling.

Pet-nat is meant to bring joy. When the bottle works for sommeliers, it works for the guests too.
