The Mudgee Wine Festival is in full swing this coming weekend. They've got lots of great events happening all over the district, from Sunset tastings @ Moothi Estate to goat racing at Di Lusso Estate. There's a Wine Show public tasting, Live bands, gourmet meals, bush poets, tasting platters, "Lunch with the Farmer & his daughters" at Farmers daughter wines, community markets, etc going on all weekend.
I hope to make it up there and sample their wares for a bit...should be excellent. Will report back on the happenings next week. The full program of events is available here - http://www.visitmudgeeregion.com.au/j/index.php
