A feast for the senses!

Tantalise your taste buds on the October long weekend. The Murrumbateman Moving Feast offers a weekend of local wines matched with scrumptious food. The Makers of Murrumbateman have organised another great wine and food festival for 2013.

Taking place on Sat 5 and Sun 6 October, the Murrumbateman Moving Feast showcases some of Murrumbateman's finest wine, food and views - an exploration of the region and senses by roving degustation.

Participating wineries and venues dotted throughout Murrumbateman will wow you with fine food matched with their nationally and internationally recognised wines. For $20 savoury fare and $15 desserts, each winery will present a tasting plate "signature dish" matched to one of their wines. Wines are presented in a souvenir engraved glass for you to collect along the way.
