Libertine 'Wave Blaster Rosé' Pet-Nat
Willamette Valley > Oregon > USA
Tempranillo & Scheurebe, 2022
The ultimate wine weirdos - Alex and Veronica Neely, embody the Oregon spirit of fearlessness and ruthless experimentation - always native yeast and low intervention. This pet-nat is so pretty. A true sensory delight, like an airbrushed T-shirt at the boardwalk in the late ‘80’s. This wine was bottled while actively fermenting to trap CO2 for a naturally sparkling wine. Ride the wave; feel the breeze - Unique and inspired. Rest in Power, Jerry!

ABV: 12%
Story: Alex Neely takes a philosophical approach to wine. He sees himself as a shepherd who guides the grapes along their journey of controlled spoilage. More often than not, the wine decides its own character as he does not pigeonhole them into some preconceived notion of what he imagines they should be. He alters his basic winemaking techniques to adapt to each particular and unique vintage. Therefore, none of his wines taste the same. The only consistency is inconsistency, much like life itself. This wine was spontaneously fermented in neutral oak barrels with native vineyard yeast. Absolutely nothing was added except for a fractional amount of sulfite. It is unfiltered and unfined. A true raw beauty.
Personality: Intense aromatics, a fruit punch bowl in a bottle - watermelon, strawberry, and raspberry starburst.
Harmony: Best consumed while riding a jet ski buck-ass naked while dolphins frolic among the waves…
