The Story Behind the Bottle
Old friend Bill Calabria at his family winery in Riverina is an Italian at heart. His parents emigrated from southern Italy in 1927, with the promise of land in Oz. They settled in the west end of Griffith, growing vegetables to make a living and helping other Italians who arrived. It was tough times. By 1945 they had scraped together enough to start a winery. Bill Calabria took over in 1974 and has been making cracking wines with an award winning track record ever since. His Little Italian Rosé is a celebration of his Italian roots and uses nearly all traditional Italian grapes. Sangiovese, Aglianico, Nero d’Avola and Negroamaro – treasured varieties and rare finds in Oz. With a dash of Shiraz, this is a fresh, fruity, charming pink.
