Description

The Ancestrale Blanc de Noir is Jasper Button’s take on what happens when pet-nat grows up. Made entirely from Pinot Noir grown in the cool slopes of the Piccadilly Valley, this sparkling wine is all about finesse and patience.

Rather than rushing it to bottle, Jasper let this wine age for over two years on lees, building complexity and texture while keeping its natural energy intact. It’s fine and detailed, with layers of red apple, brioche and citrus peel, and a creamy bead that gives it real shape and persistence.

This is the third release of the Ancestrale, and it feels like a turning point for the project - proof that natural sparkling can be elegant, refined and built to age. Drink it now with oysters and salty snacks, or stash a bottle away and watch it evolve.

Only a small amount made - once it’s gone, there’s no guarantee it’ll be back next year.

This is the third of the Ancestral Method wines from Commune of Buttons. The idea with this project is to refine the natural bottle fermentation of a petillant natural, and to bottle condition the wine to make a sparkling wine of complexity and nuance. The grapes all from the Piccadilly Valley ( 100% Pinot Noir).

Commune of Buttons

Siblings Jasper and Sophie Button returned home some years ago to help save their family vineyard nestled in the Basket Range of the Adelaide Hills, planted primarily to Pinot Noir and Chardonnay 20 years ago by their mother.

They began restoring the site and transitioning to organic and biodynamic farming, and at some point decided that rather than sell off their prized grapes to others, they’d turn their hand to winemaking.

The wines are made naturally with only minimal sulphur additions and slow, gentle ferments. Jasper's winemaking has taken them to the front of the pack in the lo-fi Australian wine scene. With each release, the wines are more refined and detailed. They are wonderfully pure, unadulterated and as loveable as the family who makes them.

No, all prices are set at the full discounted dozen rate already.

Most wine retailers list at a single-bottle price and then discount 10–15% when you buy six or twelve. We've taken the opposite approach. Since the overwhelming majority of our orders are already 6 bottles or more, our list price is set for the case buyer from the start. There's no inflated single-bottle price to discount down from.

What that means for you:

- One price, same for everyone — no minimum to hit to unlock the best rate
- No mixed-six gymnastics to qualify for a discount
- Our single-bottle price is typically at or below a traditional retailer's by-the-dozen rate

Put simply: the box discount is already baked into the price.

**And if you find it cheaper elsewhere?** Let us know. If the same wine is available at a lower price at another retailer (including at their mixed-six or by-the-dozen rate) we're happy to match it.

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
