Ben Glaetzer, Winemaker, Langhorne Creek

Ben Glaetzer Winemaker Langhorne Creek Story by Heartland

Ben Glaetzer sat down with four mates over lunch a few years back. The result was the creation of Heartland Wines from Langhorne Creek & Limestone Coast

10 years on, with many long lunches in between, Heartland has gone on to develop a strong following at home in Oz, and all around the world.

Heartland was created to showcase the fantastic fruit from the directors' vineyards in Langhorne Creek & Limestone Coast, and to prove that you don't have to be a 'big boy' in the Australian wine scene to produce great wines, which are also great value for money.

From the Stickleback range through to the world first blend of Dolcetto & Lagrein, Heartland creates wines from varieties that are hardly ‘mainstream’ but always interesting, while delivering consistency in style with every vintage.

Why name their reserve wine Directors’ Cut you may ask?... Because it’s the wine those mates now drink at board meetings. The tradition continues....
