Wine with TIME

ALEX CASSEGRAIN SENIOR WINEMAKER CASSEGRAIN WINES

A great day out with your partner or family can be made even better by visiting a local winery.

It may not seem it, however, a winery trip is a great way to spend quality time with your significant other, friends, your family, or even solo! A trip to Cassegrain Wines for example provides a perfect opportunity to experience the beauty of vineyards close to the coast. You can taste the award-winning wines produced locally whilst the kids are enjoying horse riding at Port Macquarie Horse Riding Centre and afterwards you can all enjoy lunch at Twotriplefour. The Port Macquarie Horse Riding Centre is the perfect destination for horse lovers of all ages and experience levels. Whether you’re a novice or an experienced rider, they offer a range of trail rides and riding lessons to suit your needs. The family-friendly centre makes it easy to book a ride or lesson and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Cassegrain grounds on horseback. And if you’re looking for something extra special, why not take advantage of the ‘Brunch and Bubbles’ package? Bookings are essential to ensure you don’t miss out on this unique experience!

Our onsite restaurant partner, Twotriplefour by Bills is a paddock-to-plate eatery that offers an artisanal dining experience. They source local produce from the surrounding areas and use it to create delicious meals for both brunch and lunch. The bar serves up Cassegrain wines, a large selection of local beers and cocktails with local spirits, ensuring you can enjoy the best of what our region has to offer. They also offer a range of vegan and vegetarian options for those looking for alternative dining options. I would recommend booking ahead to ensure you don’t miss out on this unique paddock-to-plate experience. Horse riding and lunch are great, however the best part of this time of year for me is the harvest! It’s the middle of our harvest, which is called vintage right now and it is one of the best times to be around a winery. Fruit is coming in at all hours and the whole

Cassegrain team is working tirelessly to ensure those beautiful fresh grapes become the wine you love. You can book a winery tour and learn how grapes are processed into wine, or simply enjoy the end product within our cellar door. Winery tours are a fun and exciting way to experience the beautiful diversity of wine and build on your knowledge, no matter what level. After a winery tour, you will have inside hints and tips for when you are chatting to friends and impress them with your knowledge on the various wine regions of New South Wales –Australia’s First State of Wine!

Whether you are looking for a fun day out with your family or an educational experience about wine production, a trip to Cassegrain Wines is sure to provide an unforgettable experience that everyone will enjoy!
