The bottle is beautiful. The wine is even better. The label, illustrated with birds and plants straight from the estate's gardens, tells you exactly what to expect: something natural, something alive, something rooted in a very special place.
A wine born where Atlantic winds swirl through centuries-old vineyards, Quinta de Curvos has been a family story for over four centuries. Deeply rooted in the green hills of Esposende, in the heart of the Vinho Verde region, their Pét Nat is the most untamed expression of the estate — a wine bottled in the midst of fermentation, still bursting with life, still fully in the making.
Pét Nat has become hugely popular in the natural wine world in recent years because it is so honest and unprocessed — what you get in the bottle is pure the expression of the grape and the fermentation, without any fuss. Exactly what Quinta de Curvos manages to capture so beautifully. Pét Nat is an abbreviation of the French "Pétillant Naturel", and means "naturally sparkling". It refers to the way the bubbles are created, namely entirely naturally via the méthode ancestrale (ancestral method) and one of the oldest techniques for making sparkling wine.
