$90.00

This is a wine for those who understand what time does to great sparkling. Stefano Lubiana's Late Disgorged Brut 2013 has spent years developing extraordinary complexity. Charred lemon, salted caramel, honeycomb, and roasted hazelnut on the nose, with a fine bead creating an elegant mousse. The palate unfolds with tertiary notes of roasted pecan, butterscotch, crème d'amande, and freshly baked croissant, rounded by brandy liqueur added at disgorgement. A long, complex finish that rewards both immediate enjoyment and patient cellaring. Pair with aged hard cheese, charcuterie, or fresh oysters. Drink now through 2033.

Aroma

The nose features rich characters of charred lemon, salted caramel, honeycomb and roasted hazelnut meal. There is a fine bead and delectable mousse.

Palette

The palate shows tertiary notes of roasted pecan, butterscotch, crème d’amande and freshly baked croissant. The palate is rounded out by the brandy liqueur added at disgorgment,
and the finish is long and complex. Drinking beautifully now or you can mature this wine as it will benefit from further bottle ageing.

Pairings

Pairs beautifully with oysters, lobster, scallops, smoked salmon, aged cheeses, and fine charcuterie, with its creamy texture, fresh acidity, and brioche complexity enhancing both delicate and richer flavours.

Wine Making

Made in a brut style, the dosage is low with approximately 3.5 grams per litre but with an added 1 gram per litre of house made and grown brandy liqueur. This brandy liqueur is made from wine which was distilled onsite. The brandy had been matured in a single French oak barrel tucked away in the bond for 11 years before added to the liqueur.

Meet the owners

Stefano Lubiana is one of the most significant names in Tasmanian wine. Fifth-generation winemaker Steve Lubiana and his wife Monique planted their Granton vineyard on the Derwent River in 1990, drawn by Tasmania's potential for serious sparkling wine. In 2013 the property became Tasmania's first certified biodynamic vineyard, and it remains one of very few in the state today. Now with son Marco carrying the family tradition into a sixth generation, Stefano Lubiana produces Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and traditional method sparkling of real depth, wines that have picked up Best Biodynamic Wine in the World honours on multiple occasions.

Derwent Valley

About the region

The Derwent Valley follows the river north from Hobart through some of Tasmania's most beautiful farming country. It's a region of contrasts, warm days, cold nights, and a long growing season that builds flavour slowly and deliberately. Home to some of Tasmania's most thoughtful producers, the Derwent Valley is known for Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Riesling of real elegance and precision.
