2022 Marco Lubiana One Terroir Pinot Noir

Marco Lubiana’s 2023 One Terroir Pinot is a proper deep dive into his home block at Granton - a single parcel, gravelly clay soils, exposed to wind and a bit more wild than the rest. This is Marco’s most hands-off, whole-bunch ferment of the year, made from a small crop with heaps of flavour and texture. No added sulphur during ferment, foot-stomped to break the cap, then left to gently find its shape in older barrels.

It’s the kind of Pinot that doesn’t jump out of the glass all dressed up - it’s more subtle, more structural, and really benefits from a decant or just taking your time with it. Built from the ground up to be cellared, but already full of detail if you’re up for a bit of a slow burn.

There’s no gloss here, just a real sense of place and a winemaker who’s not afraid to let the vineyard lead. From certified biodynamic vines and made with serious intent, this is one to track across a few hours - or better yet, a few years.
