Wine Description
Nestled within the picturesque Stanley Flat region of renowned Clare Valley, you'll find Calcannia. Our name draws its inspiration from the road that gracefully winds alongside the vineyard, epitomizing our connection to the land. Located just 6 kilometers north of the township of Clare, and adjacent to the serene Hutt River, the vineyard basks in perfect conditions for crafting wines of exceptional quality.
Vibrant aromas of passionfruit, pineapple, and citrus blossom lead to a refreshing palate of lemon, lime, and grapefruit pith. Bright minerality and sherbet-like acidity create a crisp, clean flow, finishing long with hints of green apple and quince.
