Ben was born and bred In Langhorne Creek. He is the 6th Generation of the Potts family to be involved in the Wine Industry in Langhorne Creek.
As a kid Ben spent hours in families vineyard getting into trouble and learning the tricks of the trade. You could say Ben has wine pumping through his veins.
He has worked in the wine industry in California as well as Australia. Ben also has his own label of Premium Wines called "Ben Potts" fancy that!
As a child of the 70's he has some hippie ideas on life. He is extremely conscious of the environment and not leaving our mark on it. If Ben weren't a winemaker he would have been a great candle maker.
When Ben isn't making wine he plays footy, (Aussie Rules), surfs the local Fleurieu beaches and eats copious amounts of other peoples cooking. Travel is also high on his agenda. Work related of course.
