Mother Rock – Force Celeste Cuve PN 2022 (750ml)

This is a hazy, dry and raw pet-nat made of a co-fermentation of red and white grapes. Organic grown grapes from a single vineyard in Malmesbury, a blend of 71% Pinotage and 29% Colombard. Both grapes are given skin contact as whole clusters yielding a highly structured ros. The wine is bottled before a single natural fermentation completes, making this a true pet-nat wine. Finishes ferment to fully dry in the bottle with natural bubbles and no added sulfites. Roughly disgorged but still rather hazy. Great notes of raspberry, guava, and sour beer-like yeastiness.
