About The Wine
100% Pinot Noir. This year, Anton’s Noir de Florette is from one site in the heart of the Adelaide Hills in Carey Gully. Here, the vines sit at the base of a cool, deep valley on red clay and sandstone. After destemming, the fruit fermented in large, wooden barrels with daily plunges. It was then pressed off to a 2000-litre barrel for maturation.
"For fleeting moments, the delicate fragility of true love, blossoms with the taste, and your heart wonders if you are ready for the intimacy. "

About Lucy M
When we think of natural wine in Australia, one of the first names that comes to mind is Anton van Klopper – and for good reason. Operating from a relatively small estate in Basket Range, South Australia, Anton meticulously tends to his 14-hectare organic farm, which is home to four hectares of vines and a hectare of vegetables in Basket Range, plus a leased four hectares nearby in Totness.
Anton crafts wines renowned for their complexity, raw authenticity, and uncompromising character. And that's just how we like them!
Anton approaches winemaking exactly as you'd hope: the antithesis to mass production. His philosophy encompasses every stage of the process - from organic farming and meticulous land stewardship to hand-harvesting fruit, wild yeast fermentation, and zero additives. His commitment to purity extends even to distilling his own alcohol for winery cleaning, eliminating any need for harsh chemicals throughout the entire operation.
