Petrushoeve · P'TRUS Johanniter Brut Nature

Wijndomein Petrushoeve

The Petrushoeve winery was founded on a typical Brabant farmhouse with a square footprint, which dates back to 1519. Gerry Calders took over the farm with his family in 2010, after having worked successively in the horticultural sector (his training) and in the catering industry. He is now the most important winemaker in Flemish Brabant with 10 hectares in production, combining interspecific and traditional varieties. His ambitions do not stop there: he is aiming for 25 hectares and a production of 100,000 bottles within a few years. Not without a sense of humour, he has named his vintages P'TRUS, which could make some people in Pomerol cringe ...

P'TRUS Johanniter Brut Nature

The base wine spent one year on fine lees in stainless steel tanks. Aged on lees for 16 months.

The only sparkling cuvée from Petrushoeve, it is labeled as a Brut Nature, but upon tasting, it seems to have a slight dosage (around 5 g/l, perhaps).
