Oz Clarke's Australian Wine Companion

'An essential guide for all lovers of Australian Wine'

Ben Glaetzer is irrepressible and is the driving force behind the family export label, Amon-ra...and the budget-priced Heartland label that is making superb use of Pinot Gris and Viognier from Langhorne Creek as well as reds from Wirrega in the Limestone Coast . The Wirrega vineyards are near Bordertown, in the north of the region, and the wines' phenomenal intensity almost medicinal richness and denseness of texture and heady gunpowder scent are redefining what is possible in the Limestone Coast with Shiraz , Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot."

"Glaetzer specializes in producing Shiraz from some of the oldest and unirrigated vines in the Barossa. The wines have great concentration and complexity with none of the overripeness that can characterize some Australian Shiraz."
