Hilltops Wine Expo

Taste why this is one of Australia’s best emerging wine districtsThe Hilltops Region covers Boorowa, Young and Harden and has been likened recently to ‘Barossa meets Grampians - picture a big bruising heavyweight, dressed up in a tux, discussing fine arts while casually sipping on a dry martini (shaken; not stirred...). Powerful, yet elegant and
refined’ The region’s high altitude, coupled with the dry summer and autumn, provides excellent ripening conditions. This and the rich red soils enables the production of wines with great intensity of flavour and finesse. Located just across the road from the festival area, upstairs at the Empire Hotel. Refer to the program for details.

When: 4 December, 5-8pm
Where: Empire Hotel (upstairs), Young
Cost: $10 (including cheeses and souvenir glass)
