Nest in the Night Garden

Spring Food, Wine & Stories

Nest in the Night Garden returns this spring – a little more relaxed

A highlight of Tumbarumba’s Tastebuds Festival and Spring Flower Festival Open Gardens weekend, this is a rare chance to experience food, wine, growers and the colours of spring together at Nest.

For one evening, we’ll be joined by an extraordinary gathering of Tumbarumba wine growers, with wines and people from:

Johansen Wines | Mount Tumbarumba Vineyard | Wondalma Wines | Allegiance Wines

Having so many of our local wine community together in one place is something pretty special – and a wonderful opportunity to taste across the region, meet some of the people behind the wines and hear their stories.

The Garden Hour

As the sunsets on the gardens and cellar doors, join us in the Nest garden

Graze on spring bites, wander the garden, discover a local wine and chat with our growers.

Then we’ll invite everyone to come to the table for generous seasonal food inspired by what’s growing around us and the produce of our region.

Throughout the evening we’ll hear from our guest growers – not formal wine presentations, but relaxed conversation about their vineyards, their wines and what makes Tumbarumba such a distinctive cool-climate wine region.

And something sweet…

We’ll finish at the Nest dessert table, a bounty of petite sweets showcasing more Spring flavours of Tumbarumba you can graze on and perhaps discover one more favourite wine.

This isn’t a formal degustation.

It’s a relaxed three course feast– beautiful local food, an exceptional collection of Tumbarumba wines, shared with the people who make them, set amid Spring colours of the Night Garden.
