As Pyar’s supply partner, Andy Wall, Australian wine ambassador and Managing Director of RADA Vietnam, proudly presented guests with the story behind the prestigious Bélena brand. “Bélena is the ultimate wine love story,” said Andy. “It was created to celebrate the 50-year marriage and love affair between Bill and Lena Calabria. Bill is second generation, with his father, Francesco, establishing Calabria in 1945. Bill was destined for a very promising career as a professional boxer but was asked by his father to help with the winery, which was struggling during the 1980s when wine exports has fallen. Not only did Bill save the winery during the tough years in the ’80s but has now built Calabria into one of the top 20 wineries in Australia. In 2015, Bill was awarded for his outstanding contribution to the New south Wales wine industry and received and Order of Australia from the Queen for his contributions to the wine industry.”

Guests were treated to tastings of the four varietals – Rosé, Pinot Grigio, Shiraz, and finishing off with the smooth and sweet tones of a Moscato. Bringing prestige and luxury to any dining experience, Andy describes Bélena as “the perfect partnership between Italian beauty and heritage matched together with premium Australian fruit freshness and flavour. It has been made from premium Riverina grapes, blended into a soft and easy drinking finish and packaged in a beautiful Italian inspired bottle.”
