Description

Product description for Alta Alella AUS Puput Pét-Nat, 2024 (bio)

Info

The Pet-Nat is made from Pansa Blanca (Xarel-lo). The vines are located directly on the Mediterranean Sea, on sandy granite soils at an altitude of 100–220 m. Using the ancestral method, the must begins to ferment and completes this process in the bottles. Unfiltered and direct enjoyment of youth.

Color

Light straw yellow, with greenish reflections and slight cloudiness.

Nose

The nose hints at youth, freshness, and its wild character. Unmistakably Xarel-lo – with rich, yellow-fruity aromas, evident in grilled pineapple, green papaya, mirabelle plum, white peach, and a hint of nashi pear. The fruit remains deliberately acidic and restrained, not fully ripe, but clear and taut. The yeasty note, clearly influenced by the Ancestral method and the wine’s youth, is reminiscent of fresh yeast plaited bread, salt dough, and a hint of salted caramel. No trace of the classic aromas of high-quality traditional-method sparkling wines—this wine takes the radical, purist route. Instead: white pepper, lemongrass, chervil, lemon balm, and lemon thyme. Added to this are vegetal accents such as pea shoots and fennel greens, which emphasize freshness and herbaceousness.

Palate

On the palate, the PetNat is fresh, tangy, and energizing. The carbonation is present, the acidity medium to strong—never sharp, but stimulating. The fruit remains bright and delicate, the yeasty notes dominate, yet bring a delicate melt—without heaviness, but with vibrant clarity. A wine for the moment, for simplicity, for the summer hour without commitment. Not a food wine in the classic sense – but it can shine with light, herbaceous and fresh cuisine.
