Producer Background:
Stefano Lubiana Wines is renowned for its commitment to producing high-quality wines that showcase the distinctive terroir of Tasmania. The winery employs organic and biodynamic practices in the vineyard, aiming to create wines that truly reflect the essence of the land while maintaining sustainability.
Vintage Notes:
As a non-vintage release, the Brut Reserve is crafted from a blend of select vintages to achieve consistency and complexity. The grapes for this cuvée are sourced from outstanding vintages, creating a sparkling wine that embodies the best characteristics of the region.
Vineyard Notes:
The Derwent Valley's cool climate and diverse soils contribute to the quality of the grapes used in the Brut Reserve. The vineyards benefit from gentle breezes and elevations that foster optimal ripening conditions, allowing for balanced acidity and flavour profiles in the fruit.
Winemaking Notes:
After hand harvesting, the grapes undergo whole-bunch pressing and cool fermentation. The wine is then aged on lees in bottle for an extended period, typically over 24 months, to develop complexity and a fine, persistent mousse. The final blend is crafted to ensure a harmonious balance of fruit and yeasty richness.
Flavour Profile:
- Appearance: Pale straw with a fine and persistent bead of bubbles.
- Nose: Aromas of green apple, lemon zest, and hints of brioche and almond, with a subtle floral note.
- Palate: Crisp and refreshing, with flavours of citrus fruit, pear, and toasty characteristics, balanced by a creamy mouthfeel and lively acidity. The finish is elegant and lingering.
Food Pairings:
Enjoy the Stefano Lubiana Brut Reserve Non Vintage with:
- Seafood: Perfectly complements oysters, grilled prawns, or seafood cocktails.
- Canapés: Ideal with a range of canapés, particularly those featuring creamy or savory components.
