Method Ancestral (aka Pet-Nat) is the oldest method for making sparkling wine, where the wine is bottled before its primary fermentation is complete. This is a much more wine-forward sparkling experience, that in many ways allows for a more amplified expression of the grape used. In this case, the versatile and dynamic Gros Manseng takes center stage. Alluring notes of zesty lime, grapefruit, and pineapple make for a refreshingly chic yet utterly playful experience. It is a delightfully easy-drinking wine that balances serious freshness with a light-hearted, tropical charm.
