Freshly picked, lovingly grown
Ever tried smoked butter? A sparkling shiraz chocolate truffle? How about Muscat pâté? Pack an empty esky and get ready to fill your car boot with bundles of delicious local produce when you visit Rutherglen.
Aside from producing internationally recognised wine, Rutherglen is known for producing exceptional free-range and grass-fed lamb, beef and pork. Drop into our local butcher in the main street to take home some locally raised cuts or head to Lake Moodemere Estate to try their estate-grown lamb.
Visit Gooramadda Olives and The Wicked Virgin Olives to taste award-winning olives, olive oil, and caperberries and pick up some locally made condiments and cured meats.
