P.A.N.K.
NORMAL PÉT-NAT
2023
Attila Pálffy is a seventh generation winemaker in the northern Hungarian village of Köveskál. P.A.N.K. (Pálffy Attila Natural Köveskál) started as Pálffy's natural wine side project, an homage to his love of punk music and culture, and quickly became his full-time job when the wines became an overnight sensation. The P.A.N.K. project is managed by Attila and his fiancée Orsolya, and consists of small-batch natural wines made in experimental styles. The family's organic vineyards are on Pannonian limestone, volcanic basalt rock and red sandstone. The winery is certified organic.
The Normal Pet-Nat is 100% Furmint, and was made from the free-run juice only. Flavors like nectarine, pear and green apple, with a vibrating liveliness on the palate and fine bubbles.
Whole cluster pressing and spontaneous fermentation. Unfined, unfiltered and not disgorged. Zero sulfur added. Certified organic farming.
