Pinot Noir / Gamay
Pet Nat 2020
Domaine Dandelion
Grape Variety: Pinot Noir, Gamay
Producer: Domaine Dandelion (Morgane Seuillot & Christian Knott)
Region: Meloisey, Burgundy, France
Wild Scale: 4/5
Winemaking: Organic Pinot Noir & Gamay grapes were harvested by hand. Fermentation in concrete tank with indigenous yeast. Bottled before this process was complete in order to create fizz in the bottle (Ancestral winemaking technique - Pet Nat). No filtration, fining or added sulphur.
This Wine: Super rare sparkling wine from Morgane & Christian. This is a textured Pet Nat with great balance and intensity. Cloudy white wine in the glass with a slight peach hue. Lemon, orange and mineral flavours. The perfect aperitif.
Notes on the Winemaker: Morgane from Burgundy and Christian from Australia are the duo behind Domaine Dandelion near Saint-Romain in the Côte de Beaune, Burgundy. They work 2.2 hectares of Aligoté, Gamay and Pinot Noir vines by horse or hand. Organic and Biodynamic techniques are used in the vineyard and nothing is ever added to the wines. The labels are made at an old paper mill and include pressed flowers.
