Five of the Canberra District region's wineries plus a much-loved local artisan are hosting the Taste Bud Boogie from 6-14 April 2024.
Unlock the secrets of flavour and texture with their wine and cheese or wine and chocolate pairing events and discover how these two elements interact to bring out the best in both.
The Murrumbateman Chocolate Co.'s Chocolate Tasting Plate event pairs native single origin chocolate with native Australian ingredients for $12.
Four Winds Vineyard's A Taste of Italy matches a glass of Sangiovese wine with a woodfired Sopressa pizza for $32.
Tallagandra Hill Winery's Curries and Corks introduces you to matching three ever-popular curries (butter chicken, Massaman beef and Thai green vegetable) with a flight of four wines for $45 per person.
Go back in time with the Retro Riesling Revelry by The Vintner's Daughter where you taste three sold-out vintages, including one from 2015, for $30 each.
In the Wine & Cheese or Chocolate Pairing by Dionysus Winery, you choose (so hard!) whether to pair a flight of four wines with an array of chocolates or cheese, for $20 per person. And if you have kids under 18, they can try three flavoured milks matched with chocolate for $10 per child.
And in the Back Vintage Boogie by Clonakilla Wines you get to try their famous shiraz viognier through three surprisingly different vintages affected by the changing growing seasons - 2019 (warm), 2017 (cool) and 2014 (temperate) - for $40 each. Limited to 12 people.
