The Pet-Nat is 50% shiraz from organically grown grapes at Ablington Vineyard in the Hunter Valley, and 50% zibibbo from a couple of kilometers down the road at Bonvilla Vineyard. Both parcels of fruit got a wee bit of skin contact, with slightly different treatments. The shiraz underwent carbonic maceration for seven days for a more gentle extraction while enhancing floral aromatics, and the zibibbo was destemmed and macerated on skins for seven days. The wine has a very lifted and floral nose, with a lot of red fruit generosity. This translates to the palate with persistent effervescence and a lovely touch of structure and roundness due to the skin contact and malo, whilst retaining liveliness and vibrancy. - James Turpie, wine maker
