The 2019 Calcannia Cabernet Sauvignon is dark purple with deep red. Licorice and spice with black current cassis. Up front sweet cherry and plumb fruits, which then gives way to licorice and black cherry. The medium-firm tannins on the end palate provides a well-balanced wine with length and character.

Nestled in the Clare Valley’s Stanley Flat region, is Calcannia. 130km due north of Adelaide, and 6km north of the township of Clare, beside the Hutt River and the Clare Valley Racecourse. Our moderate-continental climate enjoys cool nights and long warm summer days, retaining crisp acidity, balance and structure in wines as hallmarks of regional expression. Tasting Notes: Dark purple with deep red. Licorice and spice with black current cassis. Up front sweet cherry and plumb fruits, which then gives way to licorice and black cherry. The medium-firm tannins on the end palate provides a well-balanced wine with length and character.
