Kings of Prohibition Chardonnay Stella Beloumant

The band Men At Work was already singing about the beautiful country in the 1980s: Down Under! Australia, especially at the beginning of the last century, held an enormous appeal for many Europeans. The passionate Italian Domenico Calabria also took the plunge. In 1927, he decided to leave the authentic south of Italy behind and emigrate to Australia. He was joined there by his son in 1929, and his wife Elisabetta joined him in 1934. After saving considerably, they were able to establish the magnificent winery Calabria Family Wines & Sons in 1945, located in New South Wales, about 500 kilometers inland from Sydney.
