The Glaetzer and Potts families share a long history together. Ben's great grandfather was the first Langhorne Creek grower to supply grapes to Wolf Blass. John became chief winemaker at Wolf Blass in 1974 and received four Jimmy Watson trophies for his peerless efforts in winemaking. Much of the secret to his success was the quality of the Potts family's fruit. John has been Ben's mentor for many years. They refer to their partnership as the old dog and the new pup, occasionally having the odd dispute over old tried and proven methods, versus the new way of doing things. At the end of day everyone's a winner, a glass or two of Gipsie Jack settles the debate and puts a smile on everyone's face.
