- ABOUT THE PRODUCER: St. DUNE is a project from brothers Duncan and Peter Lloyd using fruit sourced from a vineyard in the Blewitt Springs sub-region of McLaren Vale. The first DUNE wines were released in 2016 and the range has expanded to include a variety of blends and single varietal wines that are driven by a fresh, aromatic style that this vineyard delivers. The vineyard is planted with Shiraz, Carignan, Mourvedre, Grenache, Negroamaro and Nero d'Avola as well as a small parcel of Chenin Blanc. Farming is with organic principals and the vineyard is in the process of becoming certified. Wine making is gentle with minimal sulphur used and no fining. Duncan and Peter grew up immersed in a world of wine, olive oil, illegal goats cheese and great food. Both worked in kitchens from the age of 13 and developed a love of good food and an understanding of wine's role in bringing food to life. Duncan studied winemaking before leaving the area to make wine around Australia and the world from Tasmania, Margaret River, Chianti, Rhone and beyond. In 2016 he returned home to McLaren Vale. Peter left the area after university and spent time baking bread in different parts of France, shovelling croissants in Paris, making cider in Somerset, and raising Alpacas in Sussex before working in wine distribution in Melbourne for several years. In 2020 he returned home to McLaren Vale and they can’t understand why you would want to live anywhere else.
