Stefano Lubiana Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Our 2024 Sauvignon Blanc is hand picked and whole bunch pressed and then barreled down to Austrian Fouderes in our underground cellar to ferment and mature. Our winemakers employ simple winemaking techniques to create a fumé style with purity and finesse to balance the astringent tannins and phenolics while promoting texture. The 2024 Sauvignon Blanc has aromas of orange blossom, melon and pineapple. This wine is gentle and has a fine line of acid with a gentle, long, yet fresh finish.

We were Tasmania’s first certified biodynamic vineyard, and have been cultivating
our vines using biodynamic methods since 2010. This means that our wines are free of all
synthetic treatments, additives and pesticides. Instead we travel the alternative path, stepping
back in time and using cosmic rhythms to ensure soil regenereation as well as effective vine
care through all phases of the year’s seasonal cycles.

These methods enhance our attention to detail in the vineyard and winery, as we are more
alert to the signals of Mother Nature and her messengers. Every season, we're becoming
more attuned to the synergies between our varied soil types, their organisms, the local
flora and fauna, and of course our vines.

While we have a strong focus on Sparkling wines as well as Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, we
love experimenting and exploring. Don't be surprised if you visit our Cellar Door to find a
Malvasia or perhaps a nip of Grappa tucked away behind the tasting bench.
