The 2023 Marion’s Vineyard Pét Nat Müt LUNACY is a vibrant and unconventional naturally sparkling wine that embodies creativity, spontaneity and minimal-intervention winemaking. Produced using the ancestral (pétillant naturel) method, the wine completes fermentation in bottle, creating a gentle natural sparkle and a lively, unfiltered character. Crafted from carefully selected cool-climate fruit, LUNACY embraces the playful and expressive side of wine while remaining refreshingly balanced and authentic.
The nose bursts with aromas of green apple, pear and citrus zest alongside notes of white flowers, fresh herbs and subtle yeasty complexity. The palate is bright and energetic, with crisp orchard fruit flavours supported by lively natural acidity and delicate, creamy bubbles. Hints of lemon sherbet, stone fruit and a gentle savoury edge add intrigue, while the finish is fresh, dry and wonderfully refreshing. Unfiltered and naturally made, the wine offers texture, personality and plenty of charm.
Ben’s Recommendation:
A fun, vibrant and highly drinkable pét-nat that is perfect for adventurous wine lovers. Fresh, lightly sparkling and incredibly versatile, it pairs beautifully with oysters, seafood, charcuterie, picnic fare and spicy Asian dishes. Serve well chilled and enjoy young to capture its youthful energy, brightness and natural vibrancy.
