Lively, refreshing style with tartness and green herbal character on high. Zesty, passionfruit meets grassy characters, a bit of pickle juice lending some zing and a general sense of drinkability and freshness. Not moving the dial for complexity from the style much, but delivering a really pleasing, easy to get stuck into hit of pet nat. For everyone that wants to get a bit freaky!
We are thrilled as always to welcome the freshest 2021 vintage of Lucy Margaux wines to our shop! Anton Von Klopper is widely considered to be one of the pioneers of the Australian natural wine movement. When the South African expat first arrived in the Adelaide Hills, his cloudy, no-sulfur wines were met with some derision. Thankfully, he held true to his philosophy, which seems to be a hybrid of Rudolph Steiner’s theory on biodynamics and Goethe’s “Metamorphosis of Plants” but it boils down to this: grapes achieve their purest expression when they are not altered by preservatives or artifical additions of any kind.
