WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Fruktstereo The Fruit Petnat Formerly Known As Cider is produced using the Pet Nat method, which involves bottling the beverage before its primary fermentation is complete. This allows for a secondary fermentation to occur within the bottle, resulting in natural carbonation and a characteristic effervescence. The fermentation process is natural, likely relying on indigenous yeasts. The wine undergoes no oak aging, with its character derived directly from the apple base and the fermentation process itself. Fruktstereo's winemaking philosophy emphasizes minimal intervention, allowing the inherent qualities of the fruit to be expressed.
