J.L. Denois

Pét-Nat Ancestrale Brut Nature

This 'non dosé, non sucré' petillant naturel is as old school as it comes. 100% Mauzac, the indigenous grape of Limoux, this is bottled without sulphites and fermented in bottle to capture the bubbles of first fermentation, and sent to the glass with no dosage of sugar added. Bone dry but still so fruit forward and refreshing. The palate is driven by notes of apple and honeydew and meadow flowers.
