Production information
2023 Calcannia Clare Valley Riesling

Calcannia: 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
Vinification & Winemaking The 2023 vintage in Clare Valley stood out as notably cooler than the norm, allowing for a gradual and consistent ripening process. This distinctive summer climate provided a pleasant departure from the customary hot spells. The slower maturation and milder conditions gave rise to wines endowed with pronounced fruit-forward qualities and a unique character
