The wine world is buzzing about pétillant naturel or “pet nat” wines. In this ancient method of making sparkling wine, the one fermentation finalizes in the bottle, trapping the bubbles inside. It is also common for these wines to be hazy, or have sediment, as they are often not disgorged. The 2021 Lightfoot and Wolfville Small Lot Pétillant Naturel has a cloudy lemon hue and generous complexity. An enticing dance between its peachy, apricot stone-fruit notes and its savoury leesy bread dough side takes place on the nose and the palate. This mouth-watering conversation starter is a perfect way to begin an evening. Only 365 cases produced. 2023–2024–lw

The term “Blanc de Noirs” on a bottle of bubbly refers to a white wine made from red wine grapes. This 100% Pinot Meunier’s bouquet is a balance of toast and smoky red berries. The fruit-led palate is layered with flavours of cherry, cranberry and red currant. The core is supported by vibrant acidity, making this an excellent food wine. Pair with smoked salmon canapés.
