Australian wine producer Calabria Family Wines is celebrating a major milestone in 2025, marking 80 years of winemaking and four generations of family ownership since its founding in 1945.
From humble beginnings as a small family vineyard, Calabria Family Wines has grown into one of Australia’s most respected wine producers, guided by a commitment to quality, innovation and resilience. The anniversary celebrates not only longevity, but the family’s ability to adapt and thrive across decades of change in the Australian wine industry.
To commemorate the occasion, Calabria Family Wines has released a limited-edition 80th Anniversary Durif, a wine that reflects both heritage and craftsmanship. The special release honours the family’s long association with Durif and showcases the depth, structure and richness for which the variety is renowned. Produced in limited quantities, the wine serves as a tribute to the generations that have shaped the brand’s identity.
Alongside the commemorative release, Calabria Family Wines has launched a digital anniversary story, charting the journey of the Calabria family across eight decades. The story highlights key moments in the winery’s evolution, from early vineyard plantings to sustainability initiatives, export growth and continued innovation across its portfolio.
Today, Calabria Family Wines remains proudly family-owned, balancing tradition with a forward-looking approach that resonates with both Australian and international consumers. The 80-year milestone is a testament to the enduring strength of family-driven winemaking and the pursuit of excellence across generations.
