HEARTLAND WINES. THE TOP WINES FROM A RISING STAR.
Heartland Wines is a joint venture of seven young people who came together in 2001 to turn their love for good wines into a shared enterprise. The name of their newly founded winery, Heartland, already expresses how much this project means to them.
At the head of the dedicated team as Chief Winemaker is none other than Ben Glaetzer, scion of the famous Glaetzer winemaking family. This confident and determined wine-o-holic has managed to win over not only the national trade press but also wine guru Robert M. Parker.
Parker describes: Ben Glaetzer admirably combines the enormous fruit and power of old vines with a surprising degree of elegance and complexity.
Langhorne Creek is Australia's oldest cool-climate region and much cooler than its neighboring regions McLaren Vale and Barossa – for a very simple reason: it is located in an old floodplain on the northern shore of Lake Alexandrina. As such, it is completely flat and, unlike the regions on the other side of the Mount Lofty Range, exposed to the prevailing winds for better or worse.
The wind arrives from the Southern Ocean in the early evening and cools the entire region by approximately 10°C within an hour. This, in turn, creates cool nights and thus ideal conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon.
Because the wind has such a profound effect on local viticulture, it is affectionately called the Lake Doctor by winemakers. Incidentally, the world's oldest registered Cabernet Sauvignon vines grow here. This is due to the fortunate circumstance that there has never been a phylloxera infestation here.
