The red Mufi follows the same logic as its white counterpart — a pét-nat made by the Kelhar family in Bizeljsko, named after one of the farm's cows. Where the white Mufi leans aromatic and floral, this one goes in the other direction: ripe red fruit, a touch of wildness, the kind of lightness that makes a bottle disappear at the table. Local red varieties, spontaneous fermentation, bottled before it finishes. No rules, no fining, no filtration.

Indigenous red grape varieties from Bizeljsko, hand-harvested. Spontaneous fermentation with ambient yeasts. Bottled before fermentation completes to create natural bubbles in bottle — méthode ancestrale, crown cap, disgorged. Unfiltered, natural yeast sediment. Organic, Demeter certified. No added sulphites.

This is a natural pét-nat — naturally sparkling, made without any added sulphites. That means there's one small thing to get right: follow this, and you won't lose a drop.

Get it properly cold — 5°C or below. If it's just been sitting in the fridge with everything else, it's probably closer to 7°C, which works for a still white but not here. Fifteen minutes in the freezer fixes that.

Open at a 45-degree angle, always — just as important as the temperature. Mufi is disgorged, but the bottle still holds 3.5–4 bar of pressure: with no added sulphites, that pressure is what's keeping the wine fresh and away from oxidation. Get the chill and the angle right, and it won't foam over.
