Tasting Notes for Smallfry Pet Nat 2022 from the Winery

Our 9th Petillant Naturel made from scratch using grapes from our unknown ‘Vine X’ variety which we have now confirmed is Bon Vedro. Aiming for just enough fizz so not too petillant. Arguably the simplest way to make a zero added SO2 wine Pet Nat’s are becoming a style unto themselves. Reminds me of vintage with the tickle on the tongue of freshly fermented wine. One of the few wines in our line up where food is optional.

This one is made from Wayne Ahrens’ famed bonvedro vines. All biodynamic grown. Pet nat party time. Pretty and floral aromas, some cranberry and Aperol, whiffs of watermelon granita. Ultra refreshing, zingy and tightly wound with light juiciness around strongly zingy acidity and brilliant bubbles. Delicious stuff here and so invigorating.
