Cruse Wine Co. Valdiguié Pét Nat

Crafted by Michael Cruse, one of California’s leading voices in sparkling wine, this vibrant Pét-Nat is made from 100% Valdiguié, a once-overlooked grape now celebrated for its freshness and charm. Fermented naturally in bottle with no dosage or disgorgement, this méthode ancestrale sparkler is lively, unfiltered, and full of character. In the glass, it pours a deep ruby-pink with an energetic mousse. Aromas of wild berries, fresh violets, and crushed herbs leap from the glass, leading into a juicy, fruit-driven palate with notes of raspberry, plum skin, and a hint of savory spice. Dry, crisp, and refreshingly tart, it’s a playful yet precise wine that captures the spirit of natural winemaking with a distinctly Californian edge. Producer: Cruse Wine Co.
