Producer Background:
Stefano Lubiana Wines is celebrated for its commitment to sustainability and quality in winemaking. Utilizing organic and biodynamic practices, the winery focuses on creating wines that express the unique terroir of the Derwent Valley, reflecting both the land and the vision of the winemaker.
Vintage Notes:
The 2023 vintage showcased ideal growing conditions with a warm, dry growing season. The balance of sun and cool nights allowed the Pinot Gris grapes to ripen fully while preserving their acidity, leading to a vibrant and aromatic wine.
Vineyard Notes:
The vineyards in the Derwent Valley feature well-draining soils and a cool climate, which are particularly beneficial for growing Pinot Gris. These conditions promote slow, even ripening and contribute to the development of complex flavours and aromatics in the grapes.
Winemaking Notes:
After hand harvesting, the grapes are gently pressed, with a portion allowed for skin contact to enhance the wine's texture and flavour profile. The juice is then cool-fermented in stainless steel tanks to maintain freshness and vivacity. A short period of ageing on lees may occur to add depth and complexity before bottling.
Flavour Profile:
- Appearance: Pale straw with a shimmering clarity.
- Nose: Aromas of pear, stone fruit, and hints of floral notes and spices, presenting a bouquet that is both inviting and aromatic.
- Palate: Medium-bodied and refreshing, with flavours of ripe apple, pear, and subtle citrus, balanced by a lively acidity and a smooth, rounded finish.
Food Pairings:
Enjoy the Stefano Lubiana Pinot Gris 2023 with:
- Light Dishes: Perfect with dishes like grilled chicken or seafood, enhancing their fresh flavours.
- Salads: Complements herbaceous salads with vinaigrette, offering a contrast to the acidity.
- Cheese: Pairs excellently with creamy cheeses or charcuterie, creating a delightful tasting experience.
