"What a way to start the day. The views over the valleys and mountains were sublime. Mitch was the perfect guide/pilot, told us everything we needed to know, explained things well and was great company."
Goldrush Ballooning reopen again for the season on September 1st.
The Milawa Gourmet Region is full of adventure, experiences and little delights.
Treat yourself and your loved ones to a weekend away.
Have you stopped in and chatted with Ernie at the @brownbrothers Cellar Door?
Here, Ernie opens a bottle of Limited Release Durif.
"It's a deep saturated black-red wine with a vibrant purple hue, offering enticing aromas of spice, tobacco, and dark berries. Aged in predominantly older oak, it boasts elegance and refinement uncommon in young Durif. With flavours of blackberry and plum, it delivers an intense, full-bodied experience. Pair it with a powerful cassoulet, a succulent rare eye fillet, or a classic aged cheddar." - Brown Brothers.
With treasures like this to be found at boutique wineries across the Milawa Gourmet Region, we're the place to stop for winter warmers.
