Description

Primavera might be the intro to Stefano Lubiana’s range, but it doesn’t feel like a stepping stone. It’s made from estate-grown fruit across two vineyards - Granton in the Derwent Valley and Cradoc down in the Huon - giving it both weight and freshness in equal measure.

The 2024 vintage blends about two-thirds Granton fruit (bringing richness and texture) with a fresher, more linear parcel from Cradoc. Fermentation and élevage happen in a mix of small French barriques and larger Austrian oak foudres, but it’s all pretty hands-off. The fruit does the heavy lifting, as it should.

This is a Chardonnay that feels grounded - ripe citrus, a little mealiness, gentle spice, maybe a touch of white peach. It’s clean and pure but not sterile. The acidity’s tight, but the wine still has shape and softness through the middle.

Certified biodynamic, estate-grown, and seriously well-made.

Named after springtime, this wine is a bright and fresh expression of Chardonnay. This wine is a blend of Chardonnay from our Estate vineyards in Granton, Derwent Valley and Cradoc, Huon Valley. These two terroirs build a layered falvour profile, the richness coming from the Granton fruit meanhwile the brightness coming from the Cradoc fruit. All of the Chardonnay is matured in 100% oak with a portion of the juice filling 228L barriques and the other portion in seasoned 500L Austrian oak foudres.
