Cacique Maravilla Chacoli Negro pét-nat 2022 from Yumbel Chile, 12.9% ABV. 50/50 of Malbec & cab Sauvignon. Dark red color, smoky tequila aroma (really!), mild fizz. The dark reds are usually too tannin-heavy but this isn’t bad? A little tart & smoky, but pretty enjoyably for a red. Almost glou.

Patois Parallel Voicing “ancestral method co-ferment” (grapes & apples) 2025 from Charlottesville VA, 9.10% ABV. Clear yellow with small bubbles and a lot of tartness (& some funk), it’s a little too “sharp” cider-y to be glou. Finding that I don’t like the apple/grape combo, they don’t mesh well.

Heya Wines Farha apple-grape (pet-nat) wine from Lebanon, 12%. Dehydrated pee-yellow color, mild fizz with tiny bubbles, faint straw aroma. Reeeally tart/sour, sweet/not dry, pretty funky, and cider-y to the point of being vinegar-ish. Not undrinkable, but not fun to drink either; pas glou.

Hey the hostile energy was understandable considering the state of *gestures wildly at everything*. Thanks for being so gracious, I can laugh a tiny bit about my fuckup now but it really bummed me out that I might've accidentally insulted you. Cheers!

Extremely sorry and entirely unintentional- Came across your skeet searching for "Hey there mr jambo" yesterday and thought it really funny, was stuck in my head all day, didn't click on your profile and thoughtlessly used a radiohead riff- I agree that misgendering "humor" is unacceptable garbage.

years ago a guy I knew was working with HR trying to get him back to recording & touring, there was interest in a Bad Brains movie so HR flew out to LA stayed in a friend of guy’s place that was away. It got cold, HR didn’t know how to turn on the heat so he used the gas oven, went out, house went💥

Buffo Wines 2024 Trocken landwein Rhein white pét-nat from Benzinger Wines in Kirchheim Germany, 12.5%. Pale yellow, mildly cloudy and not too fizzy. Sweet at first but finishes very dry, and extremely sour/tangy. Definitely in the “grape cider” category. Semi-glou.

Glera vino frizzante white pét-nat from Valdobbiadene Italy (DOC), 11%. Is a natural prosecco and is pretty standard for that sort of thing- dry, clear, crisp, medium mild bubbles, light yellow, slightly wine-y, not my favorite but not bad at all.

Domaine de la Chevalerie Bulle de Fort from France, 13.5%(!). Deep clear red. Lightly funky. Mostly dry with some tannins at the end, but still very drinkable. Cherry-apple aroma, very mildly fizzy. Doesn’t taste like 13.5%, and semi glou for a red.

Sifer Wines Goreti white pét-nat from Barcelona Spain, 11%. Made notes that got deleted, but I remember the gist being “Apple-y”- smelled like apple juice, twas the color of apple juice (clear light brown), kinda tasted like apple juice too w/ a tart wine kick? Not quite glou but pretty drinkable.

Bombolla rosé pét-nat from La Nou de Gaià Spain, 12%. Orange-yellow color, mildly fizzy, yeasty/fruity/earthy aroma. Semi-sweet and very sour in a way that comes together very well, is a lightly funky & fizzy orange wine that (despite not being my normal tastes) is pretty glou- if not glou glou.

I take back what I said about the Virria (8%) not being drinkable, it grew on me

There was a 4th pét-nat apparently; a dry clear rosé that’s very tart and a little funky, semi-glou.

Madrid wine bar lineup, L to R- bright orange & super funky w/ sediment (drinkableish), crisp dry white w/ fine bubbles (champagney, glou), and low alcohol (8%) rosé with some funk and mild carbonation (think it’s part piquette? Kinda meh). None were terrible, would only go back to the Tinc Set tho

Buchmeyer pét-nat Sauvignon Blanc 2025 bio-perlwein from Pillersdorf Austria, 11.5%. This is a really odd one- almost tastes like a beer? Like someone dropped a shot of pét-nat in a Miller High Life or funked up a Schlitz. Light yellow color, mild fizz, beer-y aroma, not quite glou, pretty unique.

Hajszan Neumann schaumwein pét-nat 2023 from Wien Austria, 10.5%. Had this one a few days ago but don’t remember anything about it other than it being decent (probably glou, bottle got finished…)

Sahel Ein Wildes Glaschen pét-nat weiss 2022 from Wien Australia, 10% ABV.Very sharp aroma, light yellow color but cloudy with lots of sediment. Very tart and bright, slightly lemony, tiny bubbles. Like a lemon wine spritzer, not quite that easy-drinking despite being only 10%. Not bad but not glou.

Malvin @malcojones.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
Romain Paire Éclipse rosé pét-nat 2023 from France, 10.5%. More of a light sparkling rosé with some interesting notes than a funky pét-nat, it was really easy drinking (finished it before I took good notes, which is why this review is so short & vague:)). Glou glou.

Malvin @malcojones.bsky.social · 10/09/2026
Bizzaría Wines Overground White pét-nat from Murcia Spain, 12.5%. Drinking it in a (awesome) bar in Madrid (Fun Fun) so notes are limited, but this stuff smells and tastes very lemony, is slightly sweet, and very glou (glou glou even!). Good stuff.

Malvin @malcojones.bsky.social · 09/09/2026
Antonio Jimenez el Reflejo de Narciso pét-nat blanco from Zamora In central Spain, 13%. Looks like a cloudy lager, very “foamy” when poured, is quite sweet & sour with a decent amount of funk. Very lemon-y with peach notes. Tastes “healthy”:) Would say it’s more interesting than “glou”, but not bad.

Oyster River Winegrowers Morphos rosé pét-nat 2023 from Warren Maine, 10%. Hazy blood orange color, tiny bubbles with lots of effervescence. Sour/tart & tangy, orange flavor with a mild “vitamin c” profile that’s not too strong, slightly sweet. Not my favorite but fairly glou nonetheless.

Morphos 2024 white pét-nat from Oyster River Winegrowers in Warren Maine, 10%. Virtually no aroma? dull apple juice color with a slight haze. Very light & fruity with a mild to medium fizz, white grape with peach flavors(maybe some lime?), sour but not too funky. Glou enough & reasonably priced.

Malvin @malcojones.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
It was a very reasonable $20 from a corner liquor store that normally doesn’t carry this sort of thing, think he started carrying it due to customer demand🤓

Pago del Vicario pet-nat 2024 from Ciudad Real in Spain, 11.5%. 100% Garnacha grape. An interesting one: murky peach-yellow color with a vague aroma and medium fizz, it’s very sweet (almost syrupy) with a slight “aged” flavor (normally don’t like this) but it all works together well here. semi glou.

Malvin @malcojones.bsky.social · 16/08/2026
La Mesma Indi Con le Bolle Metodo Ancestrale white pét-nat from Gavi Italy, 13%. Small bubbles, very fizzy with a floral & peachy bouquet, light clear yellow color. Very sour/sharp, dry, a little too much ABV/aka “winey” for my tastes but not bad for an inexpensive ($20) bottle of fizz.

Jubilee Vineyard/Constant Crush Wines limited “addition” dolcetto pét-nat rosé 2025 from Gaston Oregon, 12.8%. Cloudy light rose color. Sweet, fizzy, citrus-y and still very rosé with some tart funkiness. Almost a little too sweet, but that prob makes it more drinkable for that ABV.

Malvin @malcojones.bsky.social · 31/07/2026
La Staffa Mai Sentito! IGT Marche Bianco frizzante/pét-nat from Staffolo Italy, 11.5%. Apple juice amber color, fine bubbles, very dry, flavors of green apples and fully-converted-alcohol wine tannins. Mild funk & yeast notes. Not bad, good choice for people who don’t normally like pét-nat.

Malvin @malcojones.bsky.social · 26/07/2026
LS Merchants Fools Gold 2024 pét-nat from Western Australia, 12.8%. Sauvignon blanc & gewürztraminer grapes. Citrus/yeasty aroma, fizzy w/ small bubbles, slightly cloudy. Starts sweet but finishes dry with a very lemon-y flavor- the flavors hide the higher AbV, tastes like fizzy lemonade wine. Glou!

Malvin @malcojones.bsky.social · 25/07/2026
Dormilona Cherub chenin blanc pét-nat from Margaret River Australia, 12.5%. Dry, tart, and sharp, slightly cloudy, citrus aroma with a lemony taste to it. Had a bit too much oak-y aged flavor at first that mellowed out after a few sips. Decent enough but not very glou (too acidic and “aged”).

Malvin @malcojones.bsky.social · 07/07/2026
Walked for 15 minutes carrying the bottle, waited another 30 before opening it over the sink and still lost about a full glass from the funk explosion. The below pic was taken 2 minutes after opening and it was still foaming!

Aard rosé pét-nat 2025 from Aotearoa New Zealand, 11.5%. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes. Very funky and sour w/ some peach notes, cloudy pink color. Almost smells…metallic? Sweet, small bubbles, super fizzy. Would describe it as “rosé Chardonnay kombucha”. Not really my thing, but it’s not bad.

Terrace Edge rosé pét-nat 2025 from North Canterbury New Zealand, 12.5%. Fizzy & sweet w/ tiny bubbles, cloudy rosé color, smells both fruity & floral. Tastes like a lemon-lime-rosé soda (with a bit of “vitamin C” flavor but in a pleasant way). maybe slightly too sweet? but super-glou nonetheless.

Malvin @malcojones.bsky.social · 03/07/2026
Estate Black Damsteep pét-nat rosé 2025 from New Zealand, 12%. Pinot Noir and Riesling grapes, clear light amber color. smells like apple cider with some yeast and honey notes, tastes like grape cider with a little funky sourness at the end. Small bubbles and not super fizzy but pretty glou.

-Glou glou: can’t believe I drank the whole thing that fast! -Glou: that was really good, no problem polishing off the bottle -Semi-glou: first 2 glasses are fine, after that it becomes WORK. Beyond that, they’re either “interesting” or terrible. (This one’s def semi-glou) (This was semi-glou)

Lansdowne Petit Pét pét-nat rosé from the Adelaide Hills of Australia, 12.1%. Peachy and straw aroma, clear rosé color, STRONG rosé flavor, not super fizzy, pretty sweet, not super funky but there’s a little bit there that sticks around due to the sweetness. Not super glou, but not bad neither.
