Slow down there... Not Adult fun. Grown-up fun. I love creating the thing that sits alongside and elevates to new heights, the good time's, celebrations and memorable moments that life has to offer. Everything in the creation of wine is dynamic and rarely to be repeated. I love the sense of adventure. Every day, every year and every wine is different. To get that feeling and seek that adventure I've found myself as a wine business owner, winemaker, wine industry consultant, public speaker and entrepreneur. From a tertiary degree in Oenology (2002) I have spent the last two decades building a wide range of experience in various sectors of the wine industry. Vinteloper, established in 2008, is an artisan wine grower based in the Adelaide Hills, SA. We have 10ha of vineyard on our own 30ha property just outside Lobethal, which is supplemented by select grower vineyards around the Adelaide Hills. Through our fiercely independent approach, willingness to say yes when other say no and very personal touch, Vinteloper has grown from 200 dozen production in 2008 to current production of 6000-7000 dozen annually.
