The 2015 Stefano Lubiana Grande Vintage is a premium Australian sparkling wine from the Derwent Valley in Tasmania, produced by Stefano Lubiana Wines. Crafted in the traditional method, this vintage sparkling wine reflects Tasmania's cool-climate elegance and the complexity developed through extended ageing. Its anticipated aromas reveal crisp green apple, lemon zest and white peach, complemented by notes of toasted brioche, roasted almond, honey and delicate mineral undertones.
On the palate, it is expected to offer a refined, creamy mousse with vibrant acidity and a beautifully layered texture. Flavours of citrus, baked apple and ripe pear unfold alongside hints of toasted nuts, pastry and gentle savoury spice. Its mature complexity is balanced by freshness and fine bubbles, leading to a long, elegant finish with lingering citrus and brioche notes.
