SOME wineries add on a food component almost as an afterthought. After all, it keeps people in place for longer if they have a plate of food in front of them, even if it’s just a regional platter. Others, and Calabria Wines in the Barossa is one of them, take their food much more seriously, to the extent that its restaurant is just as much a reason for a visit as its wines.
Perhaps that’s to be expected, given the winery’s Italian origins more than 75 years ago at Griffith began his Barossa expansion in 2010 with the purchase of the original Hahn vineyard, which includes 12 rows of vines planted in 1914.
