LEGENDARY FAMILY BUSINESS.

The Glaetzers are among Australia's oldest winemaking families. They arrived in Adelaide by steamship from Hamburg in 1888 and settled in the fertile Barossa Valley.
As Brandenburgers, winemaking was as foreign to them as their new homeland - but it also seemed just as promising. With courage, energy, and plenty of pioneering spirit, they laid the foundation for what is now a legendary family business.

The current head of the family is Colin Glaetzer, one of Australia's most famous winemakers. He has done an enormous amount for his home country's viticulture, but even more for the continuation of the Glaetzer wine dynasty. Colin's wife Judith was a trained oenologist. His three sons are too. And even two of their wives. After three decades as a winemaker in large Australian wineries, Colin decided in 1995, at the peak of his career, to found his own winery to devote himself to the small, ultimately fine.

Super premium wines with a distinct terroir character in strictly limited quantities are the impressive result. While Colin was responsible for the first vintages himself, today his son Ben makes the excellent wines.
Ben is one of Australia's most talented winemakers, co-founder of Heartland Wines, and former co-owner of Mitolo Wines. The best Shirazes come from the famous Barossa region of Ebenezer and are harvested from 80 to 110-year-old vines.

The yields are homeopathic. The concentration of aromas in the grapes is gigantic. Ben turns them into a wine that is incredibly fruity, unbelievably soft, and highly elegant.
