Heartland Stickleback Red

Stickleback Red is Heartland's answer to a wine that simply works – uncomplicated, fruity, and suitable for everyday use.

Ben Glaetzer has made a name for himself in South Australia: His Heartland wines represent varietally typical character wines from Langhorne Creek and the Limestone Coast. The Stickleback Red is the most approachable wine from this estate – not a cellar experiment, but a wine for quick, uncomplicated enjoyment.

In the glass, it displays dark berry fruit – blackberry, blackcurrant – with a hint of plum. The body is soft, the tannins round and smooth, the finish short and juicy. Not a wine for contemplation, but for drinking.

Serving suggestion: Well chilled at around 16–17 °C. Pairs well with pasta with tomato sauce, burgers, or grilled halloumi. Drink now – no need to store it.

The Winery

Heartland Wines

Heartland Winery – a place where nature plays along. Directly on Lake Alexandria in Australia, a cool breeze ensures a temperature drop of around 10 degrees every afternoon over two hours. The grapes ripen more slowly – and gain complexity, freshness, and elegance.

Robert Parker calls Heartland wines “some of the most distinctive and complex in Australia.” Ben Glaetzer combines the power and fruit of old vines with surprising elegance and complexity here.

Heartland – the wine with the best view of the gum trees. You can taste it, no matter where you are. Pure Australia in a glass.
