About This Wine
Stefano Lubiana Riesling is made from 100% estate grown, single vineyard fruit grown on predominantly silty grey, gravelly loam over sandstone with some clay loam patches. 100% certified biodynamic grapes are picked by hand and then the fruit is sorted by hand on a vibrating table.
Tasmania’s ultra cool climate is perfect for making Riesling wines with finesse and distinction. Winemaking at Stefano Lubiana takes full advantage of the perfectly balanced pristine fruit from the naturally cultivated vineyard. Minimal handling and whole-bunch pressing. together with the use of wild yeast fermentation in large-format Austrian oak, results in wines with the purest expression of their place.

Tasmanian Wine
The Tasmanian wine region is a cool climate region, the most southerly of all wine regions in Australia. Due to the lower temperatures, the area grows primarily Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc, with smaller plantings of Riesling, Pinot Gris and Cabernet Sauvignon.
“Having been to many wine tastings over the years, I can definitely say from a personal standpoint that Tasmanian Chardonnay and Pinot noir are always ones I look forward to trying if they are on the menu. They are almost always high calibre wines that can easily compete against what the rest of the world has to offer in these varietals.” Jason C. – World Wine.
While Tasmania makes great still wines, the exceptional Chardonnay and Pinot Noir also make for excellent sparkling wines.
More recent vintages since 2005 have been positively impacted by the effects of global warming. With slightly higher temperatures the grapes are ensured to ripen fully and produce more vibrant wine.
