Weeping Juan is a naturally sparkling pétillant-naturel (pét-nat) from Delinquente Wine Co., made by blending Vermentino and Nero d’Avola that are fermented separately on native yeasts and finished in bottle to trap natural carbonation. The hue often shows a hazy, pink blush and the style emphasizes bright fruit and lively acidity with a soft, fun fizz. Delinquente prioritizes organic viticulture in the Riverland and minimal intervention winemaking, producing small batches that showcase both varietal personality and refreshing drinkability. This cuvée is designed to be chilled hard and enjoyed young, pairing particularly well with seafood and vibrant, summery dishes.

What is natural wine?
Natural wine is wine made with minimal intervention from the winemaker, using organically or biodynamically grown grapes and without the addition of chemicals or additives such as sulfites. The result is a wine that is unique, expressive, and often has a more complex and nuanced flavor profile than conventional wines. Natural wine is also often associated with sustainable and ethical farming practices, making it a popular choice for those interested in environmentally friendly and socially responsible products.
