The Ancestral method
The trick lies in the partially fermented juice being bottled, with no SO2 addition. The fermentation then finishes inside that very bottle. As the yeasts convert sugar to alcohol and complete their journey to dryness (leaving a little residual sugar behind) the by-product of carbon dioxide is created and captured in the bottle - voila, bubbles!
But what do pet nats taste like?
The beauty is - they are all different! The sheer amount of winemakers around the world making pet nats keep it interesting for even the most seasoned natural wine drinkers.
