Pet nat, meaning naturally sparkling. This technique was passed down to us by Tonio, “il baffo,” Cinzia’s father, who, while producing a little wine for him, also made a sparkling wine.
Pet nat is the oldest system for making a naturally sparkling wine in the bottle. The wine is bottled during the waxing moon, with the addition of dried grape juice or natural residual sugar from the first fermentation, which triggers the second fermentation in the bottle. The result is a more persistent and long-lasting natural sparkling wine; since it is unfiltered, it retains its bubbles longer.
A pleasant and easy-drinking wine at any time. Spontaneous fermentation.
Unfiltered and unclarified.
