LEGENDARY FAMILY BUSINESS.

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

Today's head of the family is Colin Glaetzer, one of Australia's most famous winemakers. He has done an enormous amount for his country's viticulture and 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 height of his career, to found his own winery to devote himself to the small, ultimately fine things.

The impressive result is super premium wines with a distinctive terroir character in strictly limited quantities. While Colin was still responsible for the first vintages, 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 Shiraz comes from the famous Barossa region of Ebenezer and is 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.
