Topping the list of an elite handful of Australia’s premier restaurants and fine wine merchants, the majority of their production is reserved for an exclusive allocation list. Bekkers wines are loved by devotees world wide, many of whom have become lifelong friends.
Toby and Emmanuelle Bekkers share an appreciation for craftsmanship infused with the efforts and soul of the maker. As a small family winery, they aspire to stand proud amid the world’s most coveted estates. This is a story of special wine, from the sacred soil to the very soul.
The winemaking begins with an exceptional attention to detail in the vineyard. It is a showcase for Toby’s viticultural abilities and a philosophy of farming which views the vineyard through a prism of ecology, not chemistry. This philosophy extends equally to the cellar where Emmanuelle’s precision is the perfect foil to Toby’s creative, open minded approach to winemaking. Patience and gentle winemaking practices bring to life wines that possess the generosity for which McLaren Vale is renowned, the refined textures, opulent palates and mesmerising bouquets. The Bekkers intend their wines to partner alongside good food and to be shared with fine company. Most importantly, to be a part of the most wonderful times in our lives.
