Description

If the name Lubiana rings a bell that’s because Marco grew up in the vines of Tasmanian-famed winery Stefano Lubiana. His father, Steve, was an early pioneer in the Tasmanian wine scene and certainly one of the first to use biodynamic farming in the unpredictable conditions of the apple isle.

2023 was a tricky year, it was the last year of the La Nina so it was cooler and wetter than normal. Thus making it challenging to mitigate disease but we were fortunate not to have any problems. The reds are typically more fruit forward from this year with less tannin, easy to drink straight out of the bottle, which is not a bad thing. On the other hand the chardonnays cropped very low due to the poor conditions, so acidity is up and so is complexity. I think they will need a bit of time, but they look good already.
