Go Grazing to be held on Saturday evening 25th September... Join us for THE culinary event on the Mudgee September Wine celebration calendar. Go Grazing is a food & wine matching evening where Mudgee’s finest vineyards & cellar doors go head to head to perfect the marrying of nose & palate.

The Farmer’s Pantry Café has a fantastic menu, comprising local produce. A great spot to sit and enjoy a 100 mile platter with a glass of our new release 2010 Semillon Sauvignon Blanc. As previously mentioned, various cuts of Burrundulla grass fed beef is also available there.

In partnership with James and Georgie Caspar of Ormiston Free Range Pork, we have introduced informal Sunday morning walking tours of the two farms. Enjoy meeting all the sows and piglets at Ormiston, and then become proficient at pruning, vine training or harvesting at Burrundulla Vineyards. The tour finishes at the Burrundulla cellar door/Farmers Pantry café with wine tasting and a delicious lunch. These tours will be an enjoyable “hands-on” opportunity for participants to learn all about various seasonal activities at Ormiston and Burrundulla. Only $25.

Burrundulla is pleased to announce that our 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon won the David Robertson Memorial Trophy for the best Cabernet at the 2010 Clear Image Mudgee Wine Show. The result exemplifies years of hard work and dedication from the team at Burrundulla. We also won silvers and topped the respective classes for our 2010 Merlot Rose and 2007 Semillon.

We have just released our 2010 Semillon/Sauvignon Blanc, just in time for the spring. This is the first time we have made a Sauvignon Blanc blend and it drinks very well. Winemaker Jacob Stein mixed 85% estate grown Semillon with 15% Sauvignon Blanc to create a wine of light colour and beautiful floral fruit characteristics, with a crisp, dry finish – the perfect springtime wine! This wine is now available at the cellar door and mail order with the usual discounts applying for Heritage club members.

Our upcoming releases include the always keenly anticipated Merlot Rose in summer 2010, 2007 Semillon, 2008 Shiraz, and 2008 Merlot. We have also recently launched a range of delicious Burrundulla farm grown beef products through Farmer’s Pantry (adjacent to our cellar door) – watch this space for news of wider distribution.

Lastly, our Cellar Door and Marketing Manager Sally Morton has announced that she is engaged and is also expecting her first baby - congratulations from all of the team at Burrundulla!
