They have all been selected to make a small-batch wine from two tonnes of grapes gifted free of charge. The grapes are sourced from the region’s top growers, and the resulting wines are a testament to the diversity of the region’s fruit. The three winemakers are chosen because of their exceptional talent, and their dedication to showcasing the unique characteristics of Langhorne Creek’s grape varieties. The project aims to put Langhorne Creek in front of a new generation of Australian producers, and to create a buzz around the region. The winemakers

Brendon Keys, the winemaker of BK Wines, is known for his exceptional skill in crafting high-quality wines. Anita Goode, the winemaker of Wangolina, is known for her unique approach to winemaking, which combines traditional techniques with modern methods. The Project 5255 Malbec
Wangolina released its 2024 Wangolina Project 5255 Malbec today, to coincide with World Malbec Day. The label inspiration for the wine came from a long-standing Goode family joke. In the 1980’s, the family would pile into their Ford XF Fairmont Ghia station wagon for a road trip to the shack at Victor Harbor. John driving, Jan in the front, and the three girls (Jane, Anita and Phillipa) in the back. Whilst passing through Langhorne Creek, the car would routinely get the ‘hiccups’ and need a break. Once loaded with a carton or two of excellent Malbec, the car would miraculously recover and find a second wind to complete the journey. Phillipa was well into her twenties when it dawned on her that cars don’t get hiccups.
“I think getting regional reputations out and about is really difficult, so naturally when I heard about the project and what it represented, I instantly wanted to be part of it,” said Anita Goode.
The resulting wine is a testament to the diversity of the region’s fruit, with the Malbec grape variety being particularly well-suited to Langhorne Creek’s climate.
