A Search for Balance
Statera’s origin story began in 2012. We, Lena and Alihan Haydaroğlu, after a 20-year-long demanding work and city life, dreamed of a new way of life and took a step towards realizing this dream. Our longing and passion for nature and wine were central to this new way of life. Building from this passion, we established a boutique winery that produces only the highest quality, balanced wines.
We chose Urla, a picturesque region in Turkey, as the location to put down our roots, establish our vineyards, produce our wines, and start our new life. With a history of winemaking that dates back 3 thousand years, its rich wine culture, the boutique wineries that reflect this culture and terroir, and the favorable climate, Urla is a very inviting location to make our dreams come true. Our vineyards are nestled in the rolling hills of Urla, benefiting from the region’s unique microclimate and diverse soil types, contributing to our wines’ complexity and character.
Today, as a milestone in our journey, we are incredibly pleased to share our wines, their terroir, and our passion for them.
