La Charge! Pet Nat is a clean and elegant natural wine made from Menu Pineau and Chenin Blanc grapes. This pétillant naturel is crafted with minimal intervention, preserving the expressive character of its vineyard and showing a delicate, handmade soul. The wine is fermented in a way that emphasizes freshness, purity, and a rustic charm that true natural-wine enthusiasts often seek. It undergoes six months of aging on its lees, which adds subtle complexity, gentle texture, and a lightly creamy mouthfeel without overpowering the bright acidity that defines its profile.
In the glass, La Charge! Pet Nat presents a pale, effervescent robe with a lively, energetic sparkle. On the nose, it offers inviting aromatics of honey melon and ripe green apples, with hints of citrus zest and a whisper of brioche from its lees aging. The palate mirrors the nose, delivering buoyant fruit, crisp acidity, and a refreshing, mineral-driven backbone. The bubbles are fine and persistent, contributing to a clean finish that remains balanced and food-friendly.
This wine is organic, vegan, and biodynamic, reflecting a commitment to sustainable farming and a respectful approach to the land. The vines thrive in harmony with their environment, contributing to the wine’s vibrant energy and terroir-driven character. The vineyard is located in the Loir-et-Cher region of France, an area known for its chalky soils, gentle slopes, and a climate that fosters fresh, expressive wines.
La Charge! Pet Nat is ideal as an aperitif or paired with light dishes such as salads, grilled vegetables, goat cheese, or seafood. Its bright fruit-forward profile and natural-by-design production make it a distinctive, approachable choice for those seeking a lively, authentically grown bottle with character.
