Marco Lubiana One Terroir Chardonnay 2023
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.
The One Terroir release is not just a single soil type expression set, it is a set of wines that have the complexity and power to cellar long term. They are an investment, they can be drunk young, but their full potential will come with 5+ years of cellaring. They are from only the best soil types on the family Granton estate vineyard at lower yields. Specific barrels are chosen for each cuvee, and natural winemaking techniques are pushed further to enhance the full potential of their terroirs.

Overall wine is structured and powerful but with restraint, from the acid line. It is great now but will continue to get better and silkier with 5 years in the bottle. From certified biodynamic vineyards.
