Grande Vintage

Stefano Lubiana Grande Vintage is the winery's flagship sparkling wine. Made only in the finest vintages, it is comprised of careful selections of the best Chardonnay and Pinot Noir fruit.

The grapes are handpicked from biodynamically managed estate vines in the Derwent Valley. Low yields and minimal intervention are the emphasis in the vineyard.

This approach carries over to the winery, where fermentation takes place with natural yeasts. Full malolactic fermentation follows. The wine is then bottled for secondary fermentation in the French méthode traditionnelle.

This bottle fermentation creates the wine's natural effervescence. After up to nine years on lees, the wine is disgorged (the lees are removed) and aged for several months further before release.

Pale straw with golden tints, Stefano Lubiana Grande Vintage is refined and complex, balancing freshness, elegance and intensity. It has great persistence of flavour.

A classic Tasmanian vintage sparkling.
