STEFANO LUBIANA ESTATE PINOT NOIR 2023 - red

Style: Savoury & DetailedThe Estate vineyard Pinot Noir from Lubiana wines.Monique and Steve Lubiana moved from the inland of Australia to the banks of the Derwent River in 1990 to pursue Steve’s dream of making high-quality sparkling wine. The sloping site allowed them to build a gravity-fed winery and his whole winemaking approach since that time has been based on attention to detail within a biodynamic environment. The 1st sparkling wines were made in '93 from the initial plantings of chardonnay and pinot noir. Over the years they have added riesling, sauvignon blanc, pinot gris and merlot. In '16 the Lubianas purchased the Panorama vineyard, first planted in '74, in the Huon Valley. -JAMES HALLIDAYIt is never expressed in so many words – and there are higher priced releases – but the Estate Pinot Noir is the flag bearer of the Lubiana range. CAMBELL MATTINSONStrength to strength for Stefano Lubiana wines. MIKE BENNIE, The Wine FrontCherry, strawberry, quite some perfume of aniseed and dried flowers, and a modest amount of biscuitty oak. It is medium-bodied, gently ferrous with a slight orange peel edge, fine-grained tannin, cranberry acidity, dusty and peppery red fruits of some juiciness, and a bright and finish of excellent length. Very good. GARY WALSH, The Wine FrontRegion: Southern TasmaniaVariety: Pinot Noir ABV: 12.5% Liquor Act 2007.
