RAW WINE NY 2018: What’s a pet nat and why should I drink it?

with Beka Gotsadze (Gotsa Wines), Kim Engle & Debra Bermingham (Bloomer Creek Vineyard) & Manel Aviñó (Clos Lentiscus). Hosted by Sam Benrubi (The Grape Nation). Pétillants naturels (meaning ‘natural sparklings’ in French) or Pet Nats as they are know for short are all the rage, and understandably so. Often delicious and highly quaffable, they are a very accessible bubble alternative to the likes of Champagne. But what exactly is a pet nat? Are they just fun, easy drinkers or capable of complexity, depth and even age? And is it a distinct thing or a generic term for natural bubbles? Hear from a collection of proper pet nat producers from Georgia, Spain and the USA, find out more about how their creations are grown and made and join them for a tutored tasting of the end result.
