Our 2019 gewurztraminer used for this special sparkling wine was sourced from two sites within the Elkton Oregon AVA, both planted in 1983, Bradley Vineyard and Anindor Vineyard. My wife Sue decided that we should do something fun with this wine and I had to go along with that. I’m glad I did. Pet-Nat, short for Petillant Natural is a wine that is bottled while still fermenting, with just the right amount of sugar left to continue fermenting in bottle to create the carbonation. The name comes from the fact that when it needs to be bottled a panic call goes out to assemble at the winery to get the job done, thanks to all hands. This wine is pale yellow, with abundant persistent bubbles. The aromas evoke the essence of summer, lilac, jasmine, ripe pear, with some exotic leeche and pithy citrus notes. Take a sip and you get the ripe fruit flavors with the crisp citrus and added herbal complexities. The finish is amazing and carries all of those impressions on and on and on. Pair with sashimi, ripe blue cheese or soy and ginger salmon, just a couple of ideas for starters, once you taste this you will want to embark on a special journey. It’s pretty killer, and to think I never wanted to make a sparkler, thanks Sue! 112 cases bottled by hand, October 30, 2019 13.7 % Alc. By Vol. 6.7g/L TA 3.16pH 9.7g/L RS
