Visitors come to Mudgee for the adventure, the historic beauty of the countryside and, above all, for the region’s greatest treasure, the wine. With a rich wine history dating back to 1858, the region has some of the best wineries in the world. If you’re someone who appreciates the art of tasting wine and tasting notes or someone who wants to learn more, it’s time to take Mudgee Wine Tours.
There are two ways to experience wine tasting, DIY, but do your research first and be sure to book in advance, especially if you’re coming on the weekend, as some will require advance booking. Or join one of the many wine tours in the area. If you plan the pleasure yourself, leave an hour for each place, some will take less time, especially for the experiences that are enhanced with the visit of the vineyard and the cellar. With more than 40 rooms, many of them family run, you don’t know where to start. So we’re rounding up some crowd favorites – great wines, great views, fantastic pubs, unique views and beautiful scenery.
Moothi Company
Moothi’s beautiful hilltop location affords perfect access to stunning views of Mudgee and the surrounding area. Sit back and enjoy one of the best flights at the bar while you check out the vineyards. The estate also offers a gastronomic experience with a selection of lunch dishes, local cheeses, homemade pastrami and, in summer, fresh cherries that you can pick from the cellar orchard.
First Ridge
If you love Italian style, First Ridge is the place to be. Sample authentic Prosecco, pinot grigio and the finest Sangiovese and Fiano regions. Twice recognized as the best cellar door, First Ridge is the perfect place to try something you’ve never tried before. Through the glass-fronted shipping container basement door, you have a front seat to watch Mudgee’s beautiful sunsets.
