Revisiting the 2018 because it’s bubbly and my college football team pulled off an upset today - cheers!

2018 vintage. 63 Vermentino 25 Muscat 12 Malvasia pétillant naturel. Fresh and, thankfully, not as explosive upon opening as some pet-nats can be. Green pear, apple flesh, a little masa/corniness that becomes more dominant as it warms, light while floral notes. Effervescense is relatively light and mild cloudiness.

Lychee fruit and honeysuckle. Pleasant, persistent fizz. A delight.

63/25/12 blend of Vermentino, Muscat and Malavasia Bianca, and yes, pet-nat. Still Applegate Valley AVA but no vineyard designation on this one. Pale yellow white, good foam on pour but light carbonation, bubbles disappear relatively quickly. Slight sulfite in nose, but not much else. In the mouth, creamy, slightly bubbly, lemon-lime flavor with a touch of Muscat, followed by a tangy largely lemon-lime finish. Easy to love, especially on a warm day. Fun and sure to prove popular. Not a wine to overthink, just drink...

This will be a dangerous addition to summer drinking repertoire. Witte bier + fruit salad + Basque cider. Oh pet nat my love!

Fresh pears and limes. So perfect for a summer day and a dry mouth!
