Local award-winning winery, Corang Estate is opening a cellar door in the village of Tarago.

Open from 3rd June 2022, the cellar door shares a space with existing arts and hand craft business “Our Creative Collection”. Visitors to the cellar door can enjoy a guided wine tasting, browse locally made arts and crafts and enjoy a glass of wine with a delicious mezze platter.

Owners, Jill and Michael Bynon of Corang Estate have been seeking to open a cellar door for some time and are delighted to find the perfect spot in Tarago. Michael said, “We’re really excited to open our wine tasting space where customers can visit, learn about our wines and enjoy a glass either indoors or out the front. The location is ideal; with a café next door and the arts and crafts store, plus the pub across the road, we envisage other businesses will benefit from increased visitor numbers, so it’s a win-win for everyone.”

Our Creative Collection owners Megan Alcock and Clare Delaney are equally excited about the venture saying, “We are very confident that the Corang Estate cellar door will draw more visitors into the shop, helping to shine a light on our talented local artisans.”

Corang Estate vineyard is located on the Oallen Road, close to Nerriga and has been in business for over four years. The wines have been winning major awards since the first release, recently winning trophies for top shiraz and top wine of show, and 2021 Hilltops Wine of the Year for their 2019 Hilltops Shiraz. The business is focused on the Southern Tablelands region, sourcing top quality fruit from the best vineyards in addition to their own estate-grown grapes to make up their range. All the wines are made in a shared winery in Murrumbateman.

Our Creative Collection shop is stocked with beautiful, locally hand-made products including jewellery, glassware, carved wooden items, sewn and knitted crafts as well as a selection of Aboriginal paintings.

The new cellar door/arts shop will be open Friday-Monday 10am-4pm. Address is Shop 2, 1-3 Braidwood Road, Tarago (at the crossroads of Braidwood Road and Lumley Road).
