From sipping elegant wines to tasting fresh produce to unique cultural outings, get ready for a journey that will satisfy all senses.

Though the Canberra District is a younger wine region - the first vines were planted in 1971 - it's grown up fast, now offering more than 140 vineyards and 30 cellar doors. Make the first stop in the acclaimed winery hub of Murrumbateman [https://www.visitnsw.com/destinations/country-nsw/yass-area/murrumbateman/food-and-drink/four-winds-vineyard-cellar-door ].

At Four Winds Vineyard [https://www.visitnsw.com/destinations/country-nsw/yass-area/murrumbateman/food-and-drink/four-winds-vineyard-cellar-door ], relax on sprawling lawns with wood-fired pizza and live music, and try the riesling gin, a happy transformation of the smoke-tainted grapes from the bushfires. In the preserved colonial village of Gundaroo [https://www.visitnsw.com/destinations/country-nsw/yass-area/gundaroo/ ], Gundog Estate Cork Street [https://www.visitnsw.com/destinations/country-nsw/yass-area/gundaroo/food-and-drink/gundog-estate-cork-street-cellar-door ] cellar door brings guests into its heritage former stables with a personalised tasting experience complemented with cheese and charcuterie.
