2021 Langhorne Creek Shiraz, Heartland

Langhorne Creek,

A bold yet beautifully composed expression of Langhorne Creek’s winemaking pedigree, the 2021 Shiraz from Heartland is a wine of vivid character and undeniable charm. Deeply opaque purple in the glass, it immediately signals intensity and concentration. The nose is vibrant and expressive, brimming with aromas of fresh boysenberry, spiced plum jam, and hints of cinnamon, liquorice, and freshly cracked black pepper. On the palate, the wine is dynamic and layered, dark forest fruits and juicy blackberries unfold across a framework of supple, well-integrated tannins. There’s a lively freshness and energy throughout, with spice and fruit dancing toward a long, persistent finish. Crafted for both early enjoyment and graceful ageing over the next decade, this Shiraz is a benchmark for the outstanding 2021 vintage.

Notable Awards
92/100 Ray Jordan - Wine Pilot  "This is such a good little red wine displaying so much that speaks of Langhorne Creek. Dark plummy blackberry fruit flavours with a decent sprinkle of black pepper and dried herbs. It’s medium weight but with a deceptive power and length."

Heartland Wines is a premium, independent producer located in the heart of Langhorne Creek, South Australia, one of the country’s oldest and most underappreciated wine regions. Founded in the early 2000s by a passionate collective of friends, including acclaimed winemaker Ben Glaetzer, Heartland was born from a shared belief in the exceptional potential of Langhorne Creek’s fruit and a desire to craft wines of balance, integrity, and character.

The region’s cooling maritime influence from nearby Lake Alexandrina and the Southern Ocean allows for a long, even ripening season, ideal for preserving freshness and aromatics in the fruit. Combined with deep, fertile alluvial soils and a legacy of old vines, some more than a century old, Langhorne Creek offers a unique terroir that Heartland captures with clarity and precision.

Heartland’s winemaking philosophy centres on showcasing the pure expression of place, with a focus on classic Australian varietals like Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Dolcetto, often blended or vinified in innovative ways.

The Shiraz was de-stemmed, crushed and pumped over twice a day for ten days in cool ferment tanks. The wine was matured in older oak barrels for twelve months prior to bottling.
