Frank van de Loo, Owner and former General Manager and Winemaker
Frank grew up in the Adelaide Hills, at the time that market gardens were being replaced with vineyards. He took no notice, studying agricultural science and going on to a research career in plant biology. Finally, in 1998 and living in Canberra, he twigged to the fascination and the challenge of growing and making wine. A couple of vintages working in Burgundy taught him the importance of terroir, and good bread. Frank has guided the MMV business from its first expansion in 1999 through to its next expansion in 2021, with all the refinements along the way. Gourmet Traveller WINE Winemaker of the Year Finalist, 2018, ASVO Winemaker of the Year Finalist 2020.
Frank is now pursuing a new career in another industry and we wish him all the best in his future endeavours. Of course as an owner of Mount Majura Vineyard he will continue to provide guidance, support and knowledge into the future.
