Podillia Terraces unveils its wild-yeast white Pet-Nat
Podillia Terraces releases the new vintage of its white Pet-Nat, fermented on wild yeast by the ancestral method.
The Podillia Terraces winery in the Ternopil region has announced the release of the new vintage of its flagship wild-yeast white Pet-Nat. This living sparkling wine is born by the ancient ancestral method: a single fermentation finishes in the bottle, with no added sugar, cultured yeast or filtration. Grapes from the terraced slopes on the limestone soils of Podillia give the wine a taut minerality and a subtle salinity, while wild yeasts lend a distinctive, faintly bready note. "We do not intervene more than necessary. Our task is to let the grapes and the terroir speak in their own voice," says winemaker Svitlana Terpka. In the glass the wine glows with a gentle haze, offering notes of green apple, citrus zest and wildflowers, while a delicate perlage keeps it fresh and easy-going. The new bottling is now available to order at www.podilski-terasy.com.ua and at partner wine bars. Numbers are limited by the hand-crafted nature of production, so the winery advises lovers of natural wine not to delay.
