Jul 18th, 2016A fun pet-nat. Residual sugar from Muscat allows it to be a great post dinner drink or afternoon aperitif. Bright yellow color and apricot/pineapple flavors get depth from funk you expect from a pet-nat.

Feb 20th, 20162014 vintage - Nose like a cider from northern Spain. Unfiltered with grape skins in the bottle. Cloudy gold color. Almost shandy (beer) like in the interplay between fruit and alcohol. An odd outlier in the best possible way.
