Piri Naturel - Ponderosa 2020

£39.00

A finely detailed orange wine from Nahe, where elegance quietly defines every layer. The nose is delicate yet expressive — green strawberry and honeydew melon interwoven with fresh garden herbs and white blossom. Subtle hints of raisin and smooth cherry stone add depth, while a gentle tea-like note reflects its skin contact.

On the palate, it is textured yet poised, with a light tannic grip framing the fruit. The balance between freshness and phenolic structure is beautifully judged, giving clarity, lift and persistence without heaviness. Each flavour feels precisely placed, unfolding with quiet confidence and finesse.

VINIFICATION

Hand-harvested whole bunches are gently foot-stomped and fermented semi-carbonically for about one week. The wine is then pressed to oak barrels to complete fermentation on full lees, without bâtonnage. Bottled unfined, unfiltered and with zero added sulphur. The amber hue comes from skin contact on Pinot Gris, enhanced by the presence of Pinot Noir.

A graceful, finely structured orange wine that balances aromatic charm with subtle tannic precision.
