Mike Calneggia
Australia
Owner Calneggia Family Vineyards
- Mike has been growing grapes and making wine in the Margaret River region for over 30 years. He has supplied grapes to many of the regions leading wine companies and in more recent times has started producing some wines under his own CALNEGGIA label reflecting the Calneggia Family Vineyards values.
- Mike brought “The Bloody Good Red” project to Naked Wines because he knew from good friend Brian Fletcher (who also buys fruit from Mike) that the wine would get the attention needed to provide awareness about the fundraising aspect of the wine.
- Part of the proceeds from the sales of “The Bloody Good Red” project go to the Snowdome Foundation. Australia’s leading provider of funding for blood cancer research. Mike’s dad Jim sadly succumbed to a particularly aggressive form of blood cancer. Apart from growing grapes and making wine Mike is an avid aviator, mediocre golfer and long term supporter of the West Coast Eagles AFL team.”
