Fully biodynamic production has produced an attractive mix of fruit and oak. This chardonnay boasts a juicy, savoury palate, with ripe fruit flavours balanced with a refreshing natural acidity. Time on lees has added complexity to both the aromas and flavours of this wine, enhancing palate weight and making it a perfect food companion.
Awards and Accolades
2015 Vintage: GOLD - International Organic Wine Awards 2016
2015 Vintage: 95 Points - James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion "It's best to open Primavera and let it breathe - as the seemingly fuller fruit and oak come out at once. Then, they fall back into the wine letting lemon blossom emerge, ginger spice on the finely tuned palate. The way this feels, the leesy, creamy texture and acidity spot-on."
From the Winery
Vineyard blocks: 100% estate- grown, single-vineyard, certified biodynamic fruit
Geology: Mix of two terriors, grey gravelly loams over clay and red loam over gravel
Vineyard management: 100% Biodynamic, certified Winemaking notes: Fruit is hand picked and sorted by hand on our vibrating table. Wild yeast fermented, then matured for 8-10 months in new & old French oak barrels with a small portion in stainless steel Wine notes: The lightest & freshest of the three Chardonnay styles Stefano Lubiana makes. Its point of difference from the Estate label is stylistic; this is made to provide immediate, luscious pleasure. The ‘Primavera’ is one of the most refined Chardonnays in the “drink now” category.
