Stefano Lubiana 2017 Estate Chardonnay


Stefano and Monique Lubiana's 25-hectare estate overlooks the River Derwent at Granton, half an hour north of Hobart. With a focus on chardonnay and pinot noir, it produces some of Tasmania's finest estate wines- and is certified organic and biodynamic. This new release is hugely impressively, using fruit grown from two different terroirs on the one vineyard, one grey gravelly loam over clay and the other red loam over gravel. There is a distinct minerality akin to Chablis to be found here in a wine of delightful balance. Citrus and stone fruit notes, mellow oak and chilled tannins combine to create a wine that is both stylish and food-friendly.$58. www.slw.com.au
