Description
The Pet Nat 2021 vintage by Fred Loimer is a blend of Muscatel and Veltliner. A really successful summer sparkling wine with a delicate floral fragrance, green gooseberries, lime zest, completely dry and equipped with a lot of freshness and good acidity, no kitsch, but pure drinking pleasure with a fine perlage and a solid – very natural – yeast texture. The whole thing is available at a fair price, so you can also open a second bottle?!

About Austrian Wine
Austria is a country with over 4000 years of wine making history, however, it unfortunately doesn’t seem to enjoy the status and popularity that the high quality of it’s wines deserve. Decades later, the country is still feeling the effects of a scandal in 1985 that destroyed its credibility at the time.
Grüner Veltliner is the most important wine made in Austria, distinguished by its lightly fruity, noticeable spice and characteristic white pepper notes. This variety comprises roughly a third of all plantings. In terms of volume, Riesling plays a much smaller role than in Germany, but is responsible for some of the most appreciated dry white wines made in the country.
In red varietals, Austrian native varieties are dominant and include the tart and peppery Zweigelt, spicy and dense Blaufränkisch and juicy Saint Laurent.
