Former Canterbury Bankstown Bulldog Peter Mortimer, his wife Julie and their five sons - Michael, James, Tim, Daniel and Robbie planted Chestnut Garth vineyard in 1996.The original Old March Schoolhouse, located in front of our vineyard, was puchased in 2007 and has worked perfectly for us as our Cellar Door. Open weekends from 11 - 5 pm we do wine tastings, serve hot soup in winter by the open fire, as well as ploughmans platters, coffee and homemade cakes. Located just 4 kms from the northern distributor.
We visited the winery late one afternoon and were the sole tasters, bringing Peter in from the picking in the paddocks. He provided 9 wines to taste and was about the most relaxed and informative cellar door practitioner we have come across. The wines were excellent and the history of how Peter started from scratch to where he is today was inspiring. Reminiscing about his Rugby league career was an added bonus...

Pioneer Brewing Co. commenced full scale production in December 2017. We are located on our family farm in 25mins from Orange. We are quite unique in that we grow our own malting grain, harvest it, have it malted and then create beer with it. Our beers have a fresh and clean finish on the palate which many believe is due to us brewing with water harvested on farm to brew all our beers with.

Small Acres Cyder are the first and sole producers of locally grown, locally made cider in the Central West, NSW Australia. We produce a range of ciders made with the fresh juice of cider apples and drawing on traditional methods of authentic cider production. The results are for everyone to enjoy with a number of award winning ciders and perrys. The inspiration for Small Acres Cyder came from our founders not being able to find a choice of premium ciders in Australia. Gail Kendell grew up in the UK and used to drink traditional cider made from cider apples, and frustrated with not having a similar choice in Australia, set about making her own. Since then Small Acres Cyder has achieved great success with the simple formula of great quality ciders made with passion from locally grown apples and pears. Leading the Australian craft cider market we have won more than 130 industry awards including Most Successful Small Producer 2017, 2018 and 2019.
Nick, Jannene and their crew ran a very informative apple cider making course with tasting as part of Good Food week. We loved it, and the award winning ciders were fantastic to end with.

Rowlee is a boutique producer of cool climate wines located in Orange, New South Wales. Our tasting room is open everyday between 11am and 5pm for tastings and wine sales. Wines are also available for purchase by the glass or bottle to enjoy on the deck overlooking the vineyard.
On a beautiful winter’s day we visited Rowlee Wines on a quest for the divine Arneis. We had a 1pm booking for tasting, and the awesome Natasha welcomed us to the cellar door. It’s a great spot to sample the wines: a modern, open room with well-spaced tables, a wood-burning fire, and views out over the vineyard. Sparkling clean glasses were lined up ready for our tasting. All Covid protocols were in place. We have bought wine from Rowlee before, and we were hoping to try and buy the new vintage Arneis. Natasha is very knowledgeable about all the wines, and we ended up joining the wine club, and coming away with a case of the Arneis, as well as some beautiful Fumé Blanc and Pinot Gris. This cellar door is a relaxing, peaceful place in the heart of Orange’s wine growing district. A visit is highly recommended.

Was driving through the area and decided to pop in for a wine tasting. Deb was very accommodating, friendly and gave us some great insight in to their amazing wines. The area is gorgeous as was the cottage style area for tasting. Beautifully decorated and super cosy indoors it had such a nice homey feel. We chose to sit outside in the sunshine which was also a lovely area, provided with hats for the sun and blankets for the cooler afternoon temperatures. We were given a yummy selection of cheeses and dips/spreads to accompany the beautiful wines. You could certainly lose track of time sitting in the sun sipping wine and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. The friendly dog and fluffy sheep also make for great company. Would certainly recommend a vist for anyone in the area! We will be back again for sure.
