Your guide to discovering the sweeter side to wine in the Mudgee Region
Our first stop takes us to Martins Hill Organic Wines, a haven for those seeking the purest expression of Mudgee’s terroir. They offer a medium sweet rosé – la dolce vita which is sure to appeal to lovers of sweet wines. They also offer exquisite fortified wines, including a fortified white and a ruby port – both an excellent match for dessert (or enjoy by themselves!) These rich, complex elixirs are a testament to the winery’s commitment to organic practices and the art of winemaking.
Our next destination, 791 Estate, is a testament to the versatility of Mudgee’s winemaking. While celebrated for making wine with a feminine hand, 791 Estate also offers a selection of sweeter wines, including a delicate Moscato bursting with peach and nectarine notes, a vibrant Rosé with hints of strawberry and cream, and a luscious Liqueur Muscat to satisfy those craving a decadent treat. The estate’s commitment to small-batch production ensures that every bottle is a labour of love.
A visit to Pieter Van Gent Winery is a pilgrimage for those who appreciate the art of fortified wines. This historic estate boasts a cellar door housed in an authentic barrel hall where you can sample their renowned Mudgee Pipeclay White, a luscious fortified wine with nectar overtones. For those with a penchant for sweetness, their Moscato, Mistella and Liqueur Muscat offer a symphony of flavours from delicate floral notes to rich, caramelised goodness.
No sweet-toothed journey through Mudgee would be complete without a stop at Baker Williams Distillery. This artisanal distillery crafts a range of exquisite liqueurs and schnapps that capture the essence of Mudgee’s bounty. From their smooth butterscotch schnapps to their innovative coffee liqueur, every sip is a testament to their passion for quality and creativity.
Everyone who visits Mudgee loves to pay a visit to the Mudgee Honey Haven. This haven for honey lovers not only offers a wide variety of locally-sourced honey but also tantalises the taste buds with their unique selection of mead, a honey-based wine steeped in history and flavour. From traditional dry meads to sweeter, fruit-infused varieties, Mudgee Honey Haven provides a unique opportunity to explore the diverse world of this ancient beverage.
Our sweet sojourn culminates at Burnbrae Wines, a family-owned and operated vineyard with a motto that says ’there’s nothing better than a good bottle, a healthy meal and some ’not so’ healthy banter amongst friends and family’. Visit their charming cellar door, settle in with a platter or a pizza (on selected days) and enjoy the best of what the Mudgee Region has to offer. Sweet wine lovers will go crazy for their Bout Bella Moscato, but they also have an exceptional range of other wines to try. Get ready to choose your new favourite!
