Tasting Notes
Lucashof Pet Nat is like a strong, bubbly Champagne, without the added sugars! It is also completely unfiltered, so there is a slight cloudiness, that is all natural and completely harmless. When the wine is young, it will be a tad sweet, the result of residual sugars that have not yet fermented. Over time, the wine will become drier but Pet Nat is generally meant to be consumed when the wines are fresh and young. Try as an aperitif or with your favorite shellfish cuisine.
Family-owned estate, run by two winemakers (husband and wife) and their children
• Certified organically grown grapes
• Made with 100% Riesling grapes, the Pet Nat is the first natural sparkling wine to be produced by the Lucashof winery and is spearheaded by son, Philipp
The Vineyard
Owned by Christine Lucas, sister to Nik Weis, this estate produces outstanding Riesling from important vineyard sites in the Pfalz. This estate was established over fifty years ago and has a much warmer climate than the Mosel with different soil.
Weingut Lucashof is situated in the village of Forst, home to some of the most prestigious vineyard sites in Germany’s renowned Pfalz region. These vineyards lie on the gentle slopes of the Palatine Hills overlooking the Rhine River. Lucashof Estate winery was established over a half century ago by the Lucas family. Counted among the best producers in the entire Pfalz, the winery has vineyard holdings in some of the regions best known sites, including Forster Ungeheuer, Forster Pechstein and Forster Musenhang. Brothers Klaus and Hans Lucas employ environmentally sound viticultural techniques. They avoid herbicides, utilize only organic fertilizers, and sow various grasses in the vineyard rows. In the cellar, the philosophy is to minimize intervention at every step of the winemaking process.
