Johan Vineyards
Pétillant Naturel Van Duzer Corridor Melon de Bourgogne
Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA
A small lot production, bought at winery. Yeasty nose. Lightly fizzy, dry, crisp, especially on the finish. Citrus and yeasty flavors, light skin astringency. The Melon variety “juice” here is just the high-acid canvas for the pet-nat magic to be displayed. Refreshing, well-conceived.

Sometimes these natty pet nats are...just not good. This one is very good. Fresh, a little yeasty but with a clear lemon rind acidity undistracted by lees-y funk.

New method ancestral from Johan. Much respect to this vineyard, fruits are always so delicious here. Wish this was closer to me to source grapes from. Pretty stone fruits happening with a delicate texture
