One of my favorites of the lineup at Sauvage was the Pet-Nat White, a blend of 85% albarińo and 15% aromella. A hazy and yeasty unique wine, the nose wafted Meyer lemon, vanilla, honeysuckle, and cantaloupe. It has a mousse that is both thick and light that combines with bright and brisk acidity and a little residual sugar to build a substantive structure. The flavor profile includes sweet butter cream, pineapple, Opal apple, and orange rind. In making this wine, Patric keeps it on the skins for 10 days and actually foot treads the grapes.

Amazing pet-nat. We aged this for several months and the complexity increased with time. Paired with goat milk ice cream, grilled peaches and peach brandy maple syrup - it was a dream perfect balance of acidity and fruit.

A fun little pet nat. Not ultra complex, but fruity and funky on the nose and palate.

Pretty one-note to me -- it's a bellini. Lots of white peach on the nose and palate.

Very aromatic. Mostly stone fruits - peaches, melons, nectarines. A hint of autolytic yeast. Good bubbles and drinkable.
