Critic Scores:
- (As this wine may be newly released, specific critic scores may not yet be available; check reputable wine review sources or the winery’s website for updates.)
Producer Background:
Marco Lubiana Wines is part of the Stefano Lubiana estate, which is renowned for its commitment to organic and biodynamic viticulture. The winery focuses on producing wines that genuinely reflect the terroir and character of Tasmania, emphasizing sustainability and quality.
Vintage Notes:
The 2023 growing season benefited from a combination of warm and cool weather patterns, which allowed the Chardonnay grapes to ripen thoroughly while retaining their natural acidity. This balance is crucial for producing a high-quality Chardonnay with fresh, vibrant flavours.
Vineyard Notes:
The vineyards in the Derwent Valley are characterized by varied soil types and a cool maritime climate, creating ideal conditions for Chardonnay. This environment promotes slow ripening, which enhances the development of complex flavours and refreshing acidity in the grapes.
Winemaking Notes:
After carefully hand-harvesting the grapes, they are gently pressed to extract the best juice. The fermentation typically occurs in stainless steel tanks and may involve a small portion fermented in oak barrels to add complexity. The wine undergoes a period of lees contact to enhance texture and mouthfeel, resulting in a well-rounded Chardonnay.
Flavour Profile:
- Appearance: Bright straw yellow with a hint of green, indicating freshness.
- Nose: Aromas of citrus, green apple, and stone fruit, accompanied by subtle notes of oak and vanilla, creating an inviting bouquet.
- Palate: Medium-bodied and crisp, featuring flavours of lemon zest, ripe pear, and a hint of minerality, balanced by refreshing acidity that leads to a clean, elegant finish.
Food Pairings:
Enjoy the Marco Lubiana Chardonnay 2023 with:
- Seafood: Pairs beautifully with grilled fish, shrimp, or creamy seafood pasta dishes.
- Poultry: Excellent with roasted or grilled chicken, enhancing the flavours of the dish.
- Vegetarian Dishes: Complements light salads or vegetable risottos, providing a delightful balance.
