The Pet Nat craze is here to stay, and there's very few that do this style as much justice as Tim Wildman of Wildman Wines.
Tim is a British Master of Wine who makes the pilgrimage from the UK down to Australia once a year for the sole purpose of making his two Pet Nats.
He's written articles on the style, devoted his whole brand to it and considers himself a "specialist" in the style - so it's safe to say he's completely obsessed with Pet Nat.
He's a man on a journey to turn our perceptions of Pet Nat from gluggable party juice into something that can be appreciated beyond this, too. And with accolades from global wine press such as Decanter and Jancis Robinson, he's done just that.
But you don't only need to take us at our word for this - the wines speak for themselves, being two of our most popular Pet Nats in store across multiple vintages.
"I've always loved that part of the Venn diagram where quality grapes overlap with frivolous wine styles, I call this kind of wine 'Thinky-Drinky', wines you can quaff with impunity but also have detail and interest if you pause to look."
- Tim Wildman MW, Owner/Winemaker
The Piggy Pop Pet Nat is the ultimate fun-times wine, filled to bursting point with fresh berries and refreshing acidity; while the Astro Bunny Pet Nat is a characterful all-sorts blend that is wine's answer to a peach bellini.
The wines are fun, hand-crafted and eminently drinkable, and they offer a lot more interest than just a regular park wine quaffer. As soon as you pop the top off these fizzy goodies, you'll see there's a whole lot to love about them.
