Langhorne Creek
Winemaker Ben Glaetzer. I have had the pleasure of meeting Ben on a few occasions and he told me that 2018 was a fantastic vintage for the Langhorne Creek.
A good foreign correspondent brings us stories from around the world to enlighten us and broaden our understanding of the world. Heartland Foreign Correspondent brings international grapes and sets them in an Australian context to bring our wine drinkers the truth that not all reds taste the same. Bright and refreshing, perfect to serve slightly chilled, Foreign Correspondent is made for sunny afternoons, sharing stories with friends.
Foreign Correspondent is a hard hitting exploration of fruit character. Red berries zip around the mouth. They are enhanced by a sprinkling of herbs and spices. This is an uncompromising, elegant and sophisticated way to enjoy a relaxing glass of red that pairs with everything from fine food to fine company. Serve cold for maximum enjoyment.
We were forced to abandon this wine in 2017 due to poor growing conditions for Dolcetto. Perfect growing conditions have led us to be able to revisit our new friend with very pleasing results. This is more fruit driven than our 2016 offering and is delicious cold, but will retain the joy as it warms in your glass. -Ben Glaetzer.
