The grapes were not de-stemmed, the wine was matured on the lees. Bottles were disgorged.
No Sulfites Added
The Claus Preisinger Ancestral 2020 is a delicious pet nat. Don’t get fooled by its look. Even though it seems to be a rosé Pet Nat, it tastes more like a white sparkling. Elegant, complex and mineral. The rich fine perlage follows tasty aromas of rhubarb, red currant, apple and jasmine.
The 2021 hasn’t got anymore that rosé pet nat look. It is similar in style with some extra citrusy notes and a tiny bit of smokiness. Lime, grapefruit, lemon and green apple aromas.

Claus Preisinger
Minimalist perspective
Claus Preisinger is one of the most popular natural wine producer in Austria, located in the wonderful Burgenland wine region. Biodynamic faming, fermentation with indigenous yeast, no fining, no filtration and super low (often zero) amount of sulphur added, that’s his minimalistic approach which is also perceived in his famous simple etiquettes: his signature on a white background. Those white labels represent the elegant, vibrant, lively wines; but grab a bottle of Dope or a Puszta Libre to spur your fun side!
