"Made with Riesling and Pinot Noir fruit this expression of Pet Nat is delicious! Aromas and flavours of white fleshed fruits and wild flowers, there’s a distinctive lees autolysis showcasing fresh oatmeal and wholewheat bread, smoky chalky soils and pebbles, apple and citrus, white peach and apple custard. Delicious with an appealing effervescence, ripe fruit flavours and balanced even finish. This wine always sells out so be quick!'

Black Estate winemaker Nicholas Brown has also been awarded 2022 NZ Winemaker of the Year by Gourmet Traveller Wine Magazine.
Two thirds Riesling grapes and one third Pinot Noir from two clay hillside Damsteep.
Effervescent, spring, be here now. Fresh, focused, pure, delicate summer fruits. Rose gold hue. Aromas of honey suckle, pear blossom and roasted hazelnut. Vibrant effervescence, full round fruitful mid pallet and fine lingering finish.
Vibrant and alive, this wine requires care when opening. Stand upright and chill to 8 degrees centigrade. No winemaking additives, un-fined, unfiltered.
ABV: 12%
