Visitor Information

A region with such diversity as ours takes a while to get your head around. The Rutherglen Wine Experience Visitor Information Centre has been established by the winemakers and businesses of Rutherglen and our shire, the Indigo Shire, to enable you to get the most from your visit.

Information
Talk to our local full time and volunteer staff, who know the region and its wines very well (too well in some cases). Find out which roads to take (and who can take you), the best picnic spots on the Murray, and what is happening when, where and why.

How do I get to Rutherglen?

Displays
Come and see displays on Rutherglen’s rich history, how our wines are made and by whom. Get the big picture before you experience the real thing.

The Home Of Muscat: The Worlds Richest Wine
The Wine Centre marks the start of the Muscat trail, an unforgettable tour around the great Muscat Houses of Rutherglen. View the displays on the growing and making of Rutherglen Muscat, collect your Muscat of Rutherglen Booklet and Muscat Trail map, grab a coffee, and head off into the ethereal world of the Worlds Richest Wines and the characters who make them.

Pedal power
Combine the gastronomical with the physical. Grab a mountain bike and tour the region’s cellar doors and attractions at your own pace.  5 unique cycle routes popular with the locals are available for you to download:

• Winery West Loop
• Gourmet Loop
• Watchbox Loop
• The 'Humpty Doos'
• Chiltern Valley Loop

Don’t forget us
The Wine Centre has a great collection of Rutherglen Wine Region clothing and gifts...
