2017 Stefano Lubiana Sparkling Rosé

Stefano Lubiana Sparkling Brut Rosé is 100% biodynamic, organic-certified Pinot Noir from the estate vineyard in Granton. Traditional method sparkling wine, which spent three years on lees and was disgorded with a low dosage of 4 to 5g/L. Undeniably 100% Pinot Noir and has a fine bead and good complexity and flavour. Pale rose in colour the wines shows notes of florals with fresh red berries, and dried cranberries. The time on lees provides a delicate hint of savoury notes such as brioche and cream.

The palate has mouth watering acidity, supple tannins and superb layering of flavour like shortbread, red apple skin, poached quince and strawberry. The balance of the finish is between being long and delicate. Match this wine with oysters, wild salmon or drink it by itself as an aperitif! – Steve & Monique Lubiana
