Producer: Lucy M  |  Region: Adelaide Hills  |  Style: Natural

About The Wine

The Pinot blanc is from a vineyard we lease in Totness with 30 y/o vines grown on Black Sandy soil overlying petrified schist, it is cane pruned. The grapes were whole bunch pressed with the free run fraction going into large format oak (this wine is 100% free run) where it fermented and aged, until it was bottled.

"Matricaria chamomilla waves, the gentle breeze of Grand Ballon. The Vosges queen blesses the pinot blanc below by screaming her enlightened DNA in a radiating double helix to be captured in nectar of enantiomers. The anatomically correct reflection resonates and tears well."

Anton Van Klopper

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.
