With a viticultural history that stretches back to 1858 Mudgee is now one of the top wine producing regions in NSW Each year this is celebrated by thousands who flock to Mudgee for a month long event that has been running since the 1970s On any given day there are an array of special offers and events taking place centred around wine or foodmdashand quite often both
When you visit during the festival we ask that you assist our often busy cellar door staff by purchasing a festival tasting glass and carrying it with you to each of your wine stops
This allows us to serve you in a timely manner is environmentally friendly and provides you a great souvenir of your visit These glasses are available at cellar doors for $6 each
Itrsquos also not only wine and food we celebrate eithermdashdid you know Mudgee has both a micro-brewery AND a distillery Mudgee Brewing Co and Baker Williams Distillery are just as much part of the celebration as the wineries

With a viticultural history that stretches back to 1858 Mudgee is now one of the top wine producing regions in NSW Each year this is celebrated by thousands who flock to Mudgee for a month long event that has been running since the 1970s On any given day there are an array of special offers and events taking place centred around wine or foodmdashand quite often both
When you visit during the festival we ask that you assist our often busy cellar door staff by purchasing a festival tasting glass and carrying it with you to each of your wine stops
This allows us to serve you in a timely manner is environmentally friendly and provides you a great souvenir of your visit These glasses are available at cellar doors for $6 each
Itrsquos also not only wine and food we celebrate eithermdashdid you know Mudgee has both a micro-brewery AND a distillery Mudgee Brewing Co and Baker Williams Distillery are just as much part of the celebration as the wineries
