Our Review
Erinn and Janet Klein say, ‘As fervent practitioners of biodynamic wine growing, we respect biodynamics as a sensitivity to the rhythms of nature, the health of the soil and the connection between plant, animal and cosmos. It is a pragmatic solution to farming without the use of chemicals.’ It is not an easy solution and the Kleins have increased the immensity of the challenge by using ultra-close vine spacing of 1.5m × 1m, necessitating a large amount of hand-training of the vines plus the use of a tiny crawler tractor. They teamed up while studying at the University of Adelaide in ’00 (Erinn – oenology, Janet – viticulture/wine marketing) and then spent time looking at the great viticultural regions of Europe, with a particular emphasis on biodynamics. All wines are NASAA Certified Biodynamic. -JAMES HALLIDAY
