Held on the last weekend in October, Tumbarumba Tastebuds is your chance to experience this cool- climate wine region like never before. Over two days, vineyards, winemakers, chefs and growers come together to open up the very best of what Tumbarumba has to offer.
Timed to coincide with the Spring Flower Festival, it's two festivals in one — colour, music, food, and wine flowing across the Snowy Valleys.
But what makes Tastebuds special is access. This is your invitation behind the scenes — into barrel rooms, vineyards, and wineries not usually open to the public. Expect pop-up cellar doors from producers you don't usually see in region.
Expect back-vintage releases, unreleased wines, and the kind of one-off tastings usually reserved for trade or close friends. Whether you're talking wine with the maker, tasting f rom barrel, or finding a wine that might never hit shelves, Tastebuds is about meeting the region at its roots.
