Statera 'Remix' Vol III Petnat 2022 (750 ml)
Statera 'Remix' Vol III Petnat 2022 (750 ml)
75% chardonnay, 25% dolcetto from Jubilee Vineyard in the Eola-Amity Hills
Another new wine, and the only sparkling wine for Statera in 2022, this is a light pink petnat. Both the chardonnay and dolcetto were direct pressed and fermented separately in poly tote, and the wine was bottled ~2 months after harvest date. The wine was then bottle fermented and aged for 9 months prior to release. Like our chardonnay petnat, the wine is left undisgorged, so that some lees land in the glass and add to the texture and richness of the wine.
Statera Cellars is owned and operated by two friends, Meredith Bell and Luke Wylde. Since 2014, it has been our mission to make delicious, honest Chardonnay from the most distinct vineyards in our region. We are one of the only wineries in the Willamette Valley to exclusively make Chardonnay—we love the grape and want to showcase its potential and diversity in the Pacific Northwest. Our wines are made using natural and traditional winemaking practices, resulting in wines that are compelling and markedly alive.
We work with farmers who are true stewards of the land, who see the vineyard as part of an ecosystem, and do their best to grow grapes in a way that respects and celebrates diversity. We genuinely believe that these farmers get most of the credit for the quality of our wine.
