A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz with a touch of Lagrein. Rich and full with black fruits, spice and well rounded tannins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz give this wine a rich, savoury character and good structure. A splash of Lagrein contributes spice and tannin. The tightness and structure of the Lagrein, pulls the wine together and balances the sweeter spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeartland Wines is a joint venture from industry veterans and lifelong mates Ben Glaetzer (of Glaetzer Wines fame) and Nick Keukenmeester in Langhorne Creek, South Australia. From its inception in 1999, Heartland’s ethos has been to create wines of balance, texture and a distinctive Australian identity, with a focus on Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLanghorne Creek’s exceptional terroir is the soul of Heartland. One of Australia’s oldest viticultural regions, the area is unique in South Australia due to its cool maritime climate and significant diurnal range. The resulting long growing season, along with ancient alluvial soils, makes it particularly suited to Cabernet Sauvignon. Many local growers have been cultivating the variety for generations, which explains the prevalence of old vines; Langhorne Creek boasts the oldest Cabernet Sauvignon vines in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn addition to purchasing old-vine Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz from the region’s top growers, Heartland has also experimented successfully with plantings of Dolcetto and Lagrein, which make up a few of their unique blends. Sustainability is the cornerstone of Heartland’s approach to viticulture. they encourage plantings of indigenous trees, grasses and bushes, practice rational water management, and eschew chemical treatments in the vineyards. They even have a herd of goats to keep the weeds down.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeartland’s wines are made at Ben Glaetzer’s Barossa Vintners winery in Tanunda, Barossa. Completed in 1995, Barossa Vintners is a purpose-built, pioneering solar-powered and gravity-fed winery. Here Ben Glaetzer takes his characteristic minimum-intervention approach, with gentle handling and long, cool fermentations to guarantee freshness, elegance and drinkability in the wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProducer Website: .au\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVintage: 2019 Grape: Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, LagreinRegion: South AustraliaABV: 14.5%Vegan\u003c\/p\u003e\u003csection data-liuqs-content=\"verified-context\"\u003e\u003cp class=\"site-brand-context\"\u003eListed by \u003cstrong\u003eFlowers by Richard NYC | Same Day Flower Delivery NYC\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"site-context-note\"\u003eFree Shipping on All Orders · New Store Launch Deals End in 30 Days!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"verified-product-facts\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVendor:\u003c\/strong\u003e My Store\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTags:\u003c\/strong\u003e Skincare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42987690229845,"sku":"cs_29992","price":1.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0660\/9630\/0117\/files\/g1pe7252qj9k_c9848f05-7ce6-4fd9-b15c-7828fc6a864d.jpg?v=1789279026","url":"https:\/\/willowcreekspirits.com\/products\/heartlandsticklebackred-llcakp","provider":"Willow Creekspirits","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
