Simple Pet-Nat by Nakkal Wines
Regular price
£17.00
A fresh, light, yet aromatic pét-nat with a gentle fizz and a brilliant mix of fruit, flowers and herbs.
From up-and-coming Uruguay - a winemaking region that’s budding with optimism and adventure.
White peach, citrus and greengage sit alongside rosemary and spice, all kept moving by bright freshness. Lively, without being loud.
Made with 100% Moscato Ottonel, an aromatic grape that’s part of the Muscat family. This grape is being increasingly used for Pet-Nats and natural wines, where the intense fruit and floral flavours can really flourish.
Why we chose it?
A Uruguayan pét-nat made from Muscat is exactly the sort of unexpected combination we love: unfamiliar, energetic and instantly enjoyable.

The wine...
Simple
Simple refers to the natural winemaking process that's used to make wines full of flavour. Quality grapes are pressed, then left to naturally ferment in concrete tanks. The wine finishes fermenting in the bottle to create its sparkle naturally. There is no fining or filtration, leaving plenty of character. The result is a light yet fragrant fizz that's especially good with ceviche or shellfish.
The producer...
Nakkal
Nakkal is the Canelones project of friends and winemakers Santiago Degásperi and Nicolás Monforte. Their aim is fresh, accessible wine made with minimum intervention and close attention to fruit and place. Fermentations begin with yeasts from the vineyard, while the wines are clarified naturally (two rackings timed to the moon calendar). The vineyards are farmed sustainably, although without certification.
