ANT MOORE

Ant Moore wasn’t sure about putting his name on the front of bottles. He felt it was all a bit too egocentric, but after considering the prospect of naming his wine after another tree, rock, river or mountain, and trying to decide what made his wines unique, his name seemed like a good choice.

Ant Moore controls every process in the making of his wines – from managing the vines to harvesting and processing.

“I’m not afraid to try new and different approaches and to push the boundaries. To me, that’s what making wine is all about... Constantly learning and enjoying the creative expression that is making wine,” says Ant.

The production of this estate wine is the culmination of many years hard work and the realisation of a dream. I moved to New Zealand in 2002 and have since undertaken every task required to make wine. I developed a number of bareblocks into vineyards, bought a winery and built it up, created a number of successful wine brands and now with benefit of hard-earned experience, I can launch my signature wine "ant moore". I have control over every aspect of the production, from managing my vines to harvesting the fruit to processing the wine. I'm not afraid to try new and different approaches and to push the boundaries. To me that's what making wine is all about... constantly learning and enjoying the creative expression that is making wine. - Ant Moore, Winemaker
