Lake Breeze Chapel Road Langhorne Creek Malbec
Heartland Illicium Cabernet Shiraz Dolcetto
Barossa Valley legend Ben Glaezer grew up in wine, his father Colin was winemaker at Seppelt, and his uncle is John Glaetzer, head winemaker at Wolf Blass for over 30 years. After graduating from Adelaide University’s Roseworthy campus, and a spell at Tyrrell’s, Ben went on to win a number of honours and titles as winemaker of Glaezer wines. The Heartland story began in the late 1990’s when Ben became excited about the outstanding quality of fruit being grown in some of South Australia’s lesser-known regions, in particular Langhorne Creek, where he explored thoroughly along with some winemaking friends. Today Heartland sources all of its fruit exclusively from Langhorne Creek and makes mainly red wines. Ben makes them 100km away at his state of the art Barossa Vintners winery in Tanunda. The Illicium name comes from Illicium Verum, the Latin name for Star Anise. This is a mix of Cabernet, single vineyard Shiraz and a little joyous, juicy Dolcetto. Together they have created a dense extremely fruity red layered with spice, cased in mellow oak.
Ponting Del Monte Langhorne Creek Shiraz Grenache
This new exclusive red from Ponting Wines displays the passion for quality of Aussie legend Ricky Ponting, the skill of winemaker Ben Riggs, and the quality and value of Langhorne Creek. Howzat for a fine all-round package! One of the world’s best ever batsmen and captains, a respected coach, commentator, – and recipient of the Order of Australia, Ricky has always pursued excellence in both sport and philanthropic endeavours. There’s no gimmick to Ponting Wines. Ricky and Rianna were united in their love of wine, and “... are into every detail, working closely with Ben on the wine styles..” With over 100 trophies including McLaren Vale’s “Bushing King” and the Great Australian Shiraz Challenge (both won twice), Ben is well aware of this legacy of excellence: “I’ll never make anything less than a high-quality wine with the Ponting name on it....” Del Monte – named after the picturesque accommodation Ricky shared with the likes of Shane Warne and Adam Gilchrist while at the Australian Cricket Academy in Adelaide – displays this commitment to quality perfectly. Del Monte Shiraz Grenache 2021 is a stunner. From first sniff to its long satisfying finish, it’s hugely appealing, with fresh plummy Shiraz and raspberry-edged Grenache shot through with attractive spice and approachable tannins.
