Did you know that there isn't actually a creek called Langhorne Creek? The name was taken from the town's original name, Langhorne's Crossing, which was where the bullock tracks crossed the Bremer river. #bremerriver #langhornecreek #temperatemaritimeclimate #wineaustralia
Plans this weekend? Langhorne Creek Wine region is closer than you might think. The drive through the Adelaide Hills through Mt Barker is truly one of the most scenic SA road trips to a wine region.
Adelaide City 55 minutes
Stirling 40 minutes
Mt Barker 25 minutes
Goolwa 35 minutes
Verdelho (or Verdielho as it was once referred to) was the first white grape planted in Langhorne Creek. Bleasdale’s 1930 Block was made into fortifieds back in the day, but now this amazing fruit makes the Bleasdale Generations Verdelho. Try it in cellar door next time you visit Langhorne Creek.

Only an hour from the city, 25 minutes from Mt Barker.
Sunrise with hint of morning mist over the vines at Kimbolton Vineyards. The mornings are cool in the creek and when the wind blows from the right direction, you can smell the southern ocean blowing across the Coorong and Lake Alexandria. Grapes are only weeks away from harvest. #loveweherewelive #temperatemartimiteclimate

Langhorne Creek is located on an ancient flood plain. The rain this weekend will replenish the natural remnant red gum wetlands that line the Bremer river. These wetlands and the shores of nearby Lake Alexandrina provide habitat for many local species as well as migratory birds from as far afield as Alaska. #biodiversity #winesouthaustralia #langhornecreek #temperatemaritimeclimate

When you visit the historic Bleasdale winery, home of the 2019 Jimmy Watson trophy, be sure to check out the MASSIVE 30 tonne press made from giant redgums.

You can view it and taste their world class wines 7 days a week. #longweekend #bleasdale #langhornecreek #jimmywatsontrophy #temperatemaritimeclimate

We're in awe of the amazing athletes competing in the Santos Tour Down Under If you’re planning on watching them race through Strathalbyn on Saturday January 25, be sure to head to a Langhorne Creek winery after the peloton has passed by. Google Maps tells us it’s 11 minutes drive from Strath to the Creek. #tourdownunder #langhornecreek #winetasting #southaustralianwine #seesouthaustralia
And that’s a wrap for 2019. See you all in 2020. #langhornecreek
