Food and Wine in Orange and the Central West

Join ‘The Wine Man’ Peter Bourne on a tour through the vine-covered hills and country lanes of Orange and New South Wales’ Central West region to sample some of Australia’s most exciting new wines and produce.

Take a culinary journey to Peter’s home town of Orange, which has built a reputation as the wine and food capital of the Central Highlands of New South Wales. Orange’s crystal-clear days and crisp nights are perfect for slowly ripening grapes, allowing the cultivation of outstanding cool-climate wines and rich seasonal produce. Discover the thriving restaurant scene with a host of passionate and innovative local chefs, and explore the wide variety of produce for which Orange is justly renowned.

While the wines and vineyards will be the highlight, you will also visit quaint regional villages showcasing local artisans and much-loved dining establishments.
