Overview
Looking for a last minute excuse to skip town this weekend? Get your motor running, get out on the highway and get going to Mudgee. You'll be joining thousands of visitors as they converge on the wine-loving country town, to indulge in its first-ever Food and Drink Trail.
All weekend, you'll be matching Chardonnays with cheeses, and Shirazes with dishes-beginning-with-sh, as you wander from one stop to another. There are no fewer than fifteen stops on the itinerary, including Alby + Esthers, Baker Williams Distillery, Burnbrae, di Lusso Estate, Elton's + Blue Wren, Huntington Estate, Lowe Wines, Moothi Estate and Short Sheep Micro-Winery. If you're wondering what to expect, check out our Weekender's Guide to Mudgee.
What's more, your food and wine will be coming at you at way-cheaper-than-Sydney prices. Just 40 bucks will buy you a 'trail pass', consisting of five vouchers, each of which gets you a sample of local wine, beer, spirit or other beverage, along with a matching, regionally-inspired small dish. And there's no stopping you: buy as many trail passes and make as much merriment as you like, all weekend long. As long as you're having a good ol' time, Mudgee won't judge.
