Pet-Nat is having more than a moment thanks to wines like this one — a 100% Chardonnay offering that clearly needed no further elaboration in the winery. Owner (and the Father) Guy Pacurar describes this as drinking between a cider and a sparkler, and he’s right on. Vibrant apple, a touch of pear, and stony notes dance on the palate, with fresh citrus zest coming forward in the finish. This is a delight!
