These sparkling wines we have produced are part of an ancient tradition and are made in a process known as "Methode Ancestrale" and the wines are often referred to as Pétillant Naturel or Pet-Nat's. This is how it works...we hand harvest the grapes, whole cluster-press them and settle the juice. We started wild/ambient fermentations in small stainless-steel tanks and watched the ferments very carefully until they were at their tail-end. Then we coarsely filtered the wine and bottled it (with no sulfur dioxide or stabilization) in sparkling wine bottles closed with a crown cap to contain the carbon dioxide being given off by the continuing fermentation in bottle, trapping the gas in solution and making the wine sparkling. The wines are also not disgorged like traditional method sparklers and Champagnes...so you will see some sediment in the bottle from yeast lees and tartrate crystals. This is part of the charm, rusticity and deliciousness of this style of wine. Embrace the slightly cloudy nature when pouring out the end of the bottle...it is yummy (and arguably good for you), so bottoms up!

These wines are referred to as Pétillant because sometimes there is a bit less pressure than in a bottle of Champagne. Ours contain just between 3-6 bar whereas Champagne and other sparkling wines have about six bar. We recommend you drink these Pet-Nat's very cold and suggest you drink them in larger white wine glasses as opposed to flutes to take advantage of their lovely primary aromas and delicately creamy mousse. We also suggest you drink these wines sooner than later (though we are finding these wines are aging very well). While they will develop beautifully and develop autolysis like Champagne from sitting on their lees, they are just too irresistible to not drink in their youth. Reminiscent of Prosecco and Moscato's and Champagne and Sparkling wines all at once our Pet-Nat's are delicious unique creatures that elicit tons of smiles and great pleasure.

While these really are just so good on their own, they are fantastic in cocktails and with so much food too. With the alcohol being quite moderate (8-12%) these also make fine companions at the Brunch and Lunch tables, you don't have to wait till the sun sets to crack these bottles. And don't forget the bottle opener...no need for a corkscrew with the crown cap closure!

40% Sauvignon Blanc, 30% Chardonnay, 20% Tocai Friulano, 10% Pinot Grigio

Sparkling Grape Cider — AVA New York

Sparkling Grape Cider — AVA New York
Buy Now: $26.00

We had long wanted to make a Sparkling Grape Cider. Our grapes, local apples...Co-Fermented! We made one and it was delicious, but we wanted to make one even tastier and even more expressive. So, we did it again. Thrilled with the opportunity to work with luscious local apples grown and crushed right down the road at The Halsey Farm and The Milk Pail, we created this delicious sparkling grape cider made in a Method Ancestral style, also known as a Petillant Naturel.

This is a super delicious and fun wine. It is created from 32% Chardonnay juice and 68% apple cider fermented together wild. We wanted to call it "c/Hard Cider" a play on hard cider made with Chardonnay, but the federal regulatory bureau would not have it! We cherished the chance to work with the Halsey family and their incredible apples and cider. Jenn Halsey said there are many varieties of apples in the cider we received including; Red Delicious, Fuji, Mutsu, RubyFrost, Jonagold, Winesap, Granny Smith, Gala, Honeycrisp, Macoun, Snapdragon and likely quite a few others.

There are dynamic aromas and flavors reminiscent of both wine and cider and the interplay back and forth between the two is a delight to experience. The wine is dry and the aromas and flavors and fun just seem to be heightened by the bubbles. The wine possesses lower moderate alcohol at only 9.0% and delicious lively acidity that keeps you coming back for more. We only made 148 cases of this delicious sparkler.

While regulations do not allow us to put a vintage on this wine; all the fruit, both grape and apples, are from the 2021 vintage. We think this wine is pretty special and there are not too many examples of this magical combination of grape juice and apple cider grown so close together. So don't miss the experience and delicious expression & reflection of our East End told through two farms and two distinctly different fruits alchemized together for this awesome sparkling wine! 148 cases produced.

If you open rapidly or the bottle is not well chilled just have your glass nearby to quickly pour...HAVE FUN AND ENJOY!!!!
