2021 Field Recordings Pet Nat Rose

Product description

Grape(:s) Cabernet Franc | Chardonnay | Molinara

Region: Paso Robles

Country: California

Farming Practices: Sustainable, Vegan

The Cabernet Franc for this wine is sourced from older, often virused vineyards that struggle to ripen fruit enough to produce red wines. The beauty of this is that they still maintain their acidity at low brix well enough to produce high-quality Pét Nat. The grapes are hand-harvested and pressed whole cluster before spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel. The Chardonnay is sourced from the Arroyo Grande Valley and is picked at even higher levels of acidity in order to help give the Pét Nat structure to rival Methode Champenoise wines. The Chardonnay along with the Molinara are both fermented separately in stainless steel before being added to the Cabernet Franc before bottling. No non-grape sugar was used to finish the fermentation in the bottle. Pét Nat Rosé has become one of our most popular features of our Pét Nat program. Much different than typical sparkling wines, the finished wine has a unique raw character, loaded with energy and charisma.
