Méthode Ancestrale was actually the predecessor to the creation of champagne and how Dom Pérignon found the champagne method. This wine is unique in that it is lightly bubbly and often cloudy because fermentation is finished inside the bottle and does not experience filtration. A crown cap is used because it follows the true Ancestrale Méthode.

The juice for this Pet-Nat Rosé is mainly derived from the Saignée (sen-yee) method, which is the use of a portion of the drained liquid when pressing red grapes. Drinkers of William Chris wines should expect this distinct wine to be in the portfolio for years to come.

Prior to their partnership, both Bill and Chris had numerous years of experience growing grapes in Texas. Since the two established the William Chris Vineyards brand, a beautiful story continues to be written. Not only driven by the passion of our founders but also the community they continue to build as the business grows. Their vineyard partners, winemakers, and team members make Bill and Chris's vision a reality.
