THE pealing of fire engine bells and rattle of collection tins raising money for the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal are as much a part of Good Friday in Victoria as fish dinners and time with family. And across North East communities, no matter how small, volunteers are committed to raising money for the appeal so the hospital can continue to help sick children. Appeal Myrtleford area manager, Karen Jones, has been involved for a number of years, as part of her passion for helping children. She has also witnessed the valuable work done by the Royal Children’s Hospital firsthand, with her son Alistair undergoing life changing surgery at the hospital at the age of 11. “They were just amazing,” she said of the hospital and its staff. “It brings home the specialty of care that you can get there.” As a kindergarten teacher, she has also seen a number of her young students benefit from the care provided from the hospital, as well as many young members of the Myrtleford and district community. “They provide groundbreaking, specialised care…they’re a very special breed of people,” she said. Karen is full of praise for the ongoing fundraising efforts of the Myrtleford community, which ranges from the Good Friday fire engine collections to collection tins at local businesses and more. She said outlying communities such as Whorouly and Buffalo River also do their part. “They’re a brilliant team in Myrtleford,” Karen said. “Everyone just pitches in.” continued page |

ONE stunning plant that brings a tropical feel to the garden is hibiscus. Known for gorgeous, large colourful summer blooms with prominent stamens, a new range has been released which is even more spectacular than the conventional hibiscus. They are hardy shrubs and suitable for both cool and warm climates. The ‘Summerific’ range of hibiscus feature extra-large flowers, up to 20cm in diameter, in striking colour combinations. ‘Berrylicious’ is a deep pink with a darker centre, ‘My Valentine’ is a strong velvety red, ‘Tie Die’ features shades of pink and white with a dark centre and ‘Midnight Marvel’ has deep dark red flowers with purple-bronze foliage. ‘Summerific’ hibiscus are compact plants and grow to a height and spread of around a metre. Unlike their tropical cousins they are deciduous, losing their leaves during autumn. These hibiscus need to be pruned down to almost ground level in winter while dormant to promote new fresh growth in spring. New shoots will appear early spring. Tip prune lightly to encourage thicker growth and more flowers. ‘Summerific’ hibiscus grow in most soils. Ensure the soil is free draining, especially during the winter months.
WITH DEBBI GIBSON, HORTICULTURALIST
The crowns may rot if the soil remains waterlogged so add plenty of compost to the soil prior to planting. They grow in full sun to part shade but need protection from strong winds which may damage the stems or flowers. They should be fed early spring with a complete fertiliser as soon as the shoots first appear and then every four weeks during flowering. Remove spent flowers and add some potash to prolong the flowering period. They prefer a slightly moist soil, especially when in flower, so water deeply and regularly. Apply a thick layer of mulch around the root zone, once the stems have developed. Avoid placing the mulch too close to the stems as this may cause rot. ‘Summerific’ hibiscus are also perfect for pots and containers. Use a premium quality potting mix and place pot feet under the pot to improve drainage. Find a place in your garden for these stunning summer beauties. Happy gardening.

Rabbit diets and their teeth HERE is some petcare advice to sink your teeth into! Rabbits make perfect first pets. They are easy to care for and are cute, friendly pocket pets for the younger members of your family. However, there are some things you need to know about this species dietary requirements and teeth, in order to ensure that they remain happy and heathy. Let’s hop to it! Firstly, did you know that a rabbit’s teeth continually grow? This makes what you feed your pet so important, as the teeth need to wear down with diet. The gastrointestinal tract of a rabbit is designed for a high fibre diet, they need to eat at least 70- 80 per cent high fibre in order to prevent gut issues. Contrary to popular belief pellets are not ideal. Options like grass, hay and lucerne straw are good. Some vegetables are also acceptable- bok choy, spinach leaves, celery, brussel sprouts,
lettuce, kale, broccoli and herbs such as parsley, dandelion, coriander, basil, dill and mint. Fruit on the other hand should only be given as a treat, as it can be high in sugar. Looking after your rabbit’s teeth and ensuring that they have a balanced, high fibre diet is a crucial part of their petcare. Teeth issues can lead to tooth root abscesses, which are very difficult to treat in these animals. Prevention is better than a cure! Dr Meagan Lee BVSc (Hons), Ovens and Kiewa Veterinary Hospital.
SUPPORT: Many members of the Myrtleford community turn out each year to help with the Good Friday Appeal.
FUNDRAISING HELP: Val McPherson (centre, standing), with the help of several other volunteers, helps support the fundraising effforts for the Good Friday Appeal by carrying out necessary tasks such as counting donations.
PETS CORNER
Last year the Myrtleford appeal managed to raise $18,604, and Karen hopes that can be achieved this year. It’s a hope shared by Val and George McPherson – both OAM recipients this year - who are dedicated members of the Myrtleford community lending their support.
THIS week’s pet of the week at the Wangaratta RSPCA is Cutie Pie, a Staffordshire cross female dog who is one year old and red and white in colour. To see more animals up for adoption at the Wangaratta RSPCA, visit the shelter in Connell Street or phone (03) 5722 2874.

LOVELY CATCH, AND RELEASE: One of the author’s four Murray cod caught just on the upstream side of Wangaratta last week on a green Wilson Slickback lure.
Murray cod still “on the chew” THE great Murray cod fishing continues around North East Victoria at the moment with reports coming in from a wide range of waterways. I fished upstream of Wangaratta last week where I managed to catch four cod in just a couple of hours walking the banks casting lures. I caught two of my cod on a green Wilson Slickback lure, and two on a Koolabung Codwalker surface lure. I did not measure the fish before I released them, but at a rough guess two were around the 35cm mark and two were around the 45-50cm size range. All were undersize but still lovely fish. Incidentally, I went back out the
BY ROB ALEXANDER, WANGARATTA
next evening with a mate and we didn’t catch a single fish despite being only 100 metres downstream in the same spot with the same lures. That’s fishing! On the weekend there were quite a lot of anglers fishing along the Ovens River as part of an angler creel survey. From the reports I have received there were a lot of Murray cod caught in the lower reaches of the Ovens River downstream of Peechelba, including a few in the 70cm size range.

What caught my attention was the number of yellowbelly that had been caught. The fella I was talking to told me of five yellowbelly in the 50cm size range that he knew of, and there may well have been more. Now there were a few boats on the water, and these guys are very seasoned anglers that know their stuff, but still, the number of Murray cod they caught is testimony to the healthly fish population being sustained in the river, as well as a reminder they’re still “on the chew”. The report I received indicated that most of the boats, each with two anglers, seemed to have caught around nine or ten cod per day.

What is naturopathy? BELINDA and I often get asked what is naturopathy? What do you do and can you help me with ... xyz...? In simple terms, naturopathy is a system of natural healthcare based on assessing and treating the cause of ill health. What we find is that for most people there will be a certain weakness that their body is prone to when it is under stress (stress can be physical like an injury, lifestyle induced like eating foods that don’t agree with you, poor sleep habits or it can be an emotional or mental response). These stressors tend to effect our weakest link – this is why one person is prone to PMS, others are always tired or bloated and someone else always gets a cold or sinus infection whenever they are run down or stressed. One common example we see is women who become sluggish and fatigued after a hormonal change like menopause or having a child. They say, ”ever since the birth of my 2nd child I can eat well and go to the gym, but I still feel sluggish”. They become frustrated because they eat better than their friends who don’t seem to have these
BY NORTH EAST NATURAL HEALTH CENTRE’S NATUROPATHS SOPHIE LORBACK AND BELINDA MCPHERSON (BHSCI. NATUROPATHY)
problems with bloating and sluggish metabolism. This is because for this person, the stress of the hormonal change has affected their metabolism. For their friend it may cause more PMS, anxiety or skin issues instead. To help you work out what is stressing your body we use four main tools. 1. Food intolerance testing: a simple way to highlight foods that don’t agree with you and create a specific diet plan (don’t worry, we would never ask a new mum to give up chocolate!). 2. Talking to you and asking questions about your past and family history and lifestyle. This is to help us understand your health story and priorities and how to fit these in around your family or lifestyle. 3. Pathology testing: we can refer and interpret pathology testing and refer you for speciality hormonal and nutritional testing. Our aim is to get your results to reflect the optimal levels, so that if you are under
stress again (physical, mental, lifestyle) you won’t crash again so easily. 4. Our body scan, which is probably the highlight of our consultation for most patients, gives you a visual of everything that needs addressing and you can see it improve as we work through each of the triggers. Once we work out what is causing the stress for your body we come up with a herbal and nutritional prescription to correct any imbalances and nurture the weakest organs. We also refer to our team of specialist natural health care providers such as chiro, massage and osteopathy for body work and counselling/ kinesiology for emotional issues. As you start to feel better we put together a list of things you need to do daily to keep yourself well such as diet changes, stress management techniques or changes to sleep and exercise habits.

WINE TALK
IN MY KITCHEN
King River Estate
Spaghetti with poached egg, fresh salmon and baby spinach
2014 Shiraz Around $28
WITH ANITA McPHERSON A bottle of King River Estate Shiraz made us glad there are reserves to call upon. It’s delicious; a deep russet colour with an earthy aroma of red berries and the snap of white pepper. The flavour is rich, rewarding and multi-faceted, quite savoury with wild berries and spicy plum and lingering long as it basks in oaky warmth. It’s made by Trevor Knaggs who uses biodynamic practises in the management of his Edi vineyard, which itself has been in Mother Nature’s firing line lately. But if I had that Shiraz in the cellar to lift my spirits, I think it would make a mighty fine spot to be holed up. Available from the cellar door or visit www. kingriverestate.com.au
EGGS are the most common symbol of Easter, popularly enjoyed in their chocolate format as well as in baked treats like hot cross buns. Eggs are also perfect to pair with seafood for a twist on the meat-free tradition of Good Friday, such as in this recipe from the Australian Egg Corporation. For more healthy, quick and versatile recipes, visit www.eggs.org. au. Method 1. Cook the spaghetti in a large pot of water. 2. Poach the eggs and set aside. 3. Place salmon and spinach into a large bowl. 4. Once the pasta is cooked lift it out of the water into the bowl stirring carefully. Add a little of the pasta water to bring it all together.

INGREDIENTS
IN the last few months, some freakish storm cells have caused havoc in parts of the north east, causing flash flooding, wild winds, mud slides and hard-hitting hail. Places like Myrrhee and Moyhu have had their fair share, rain bucketed down like no tomorrow in Carboor and the Ovens Valley also copped a hiding. What’s frightening is how short, sharp and ferocious these growing number of episodes are, damaging homes, flooding businesses and threatening people’s livelihoods in their wake. But what’s wonderful is the resilience of anyone who makes their living off the land, choosing to roll with the punches before standing up to take the next comer on. As we hold our breath and wait to see what’s going to happen next, it’s worth remembering that when the planets do align you end up with a product that makes it all worthwhile.

BUSINESS AND FINANCE
And so you want to be richer? I CONTINUALLY read of the success or failure of people in their pursuit of being filthy rich. No, I am not saying that we shouldn’t work hard and accumulate wealth, but just how much and for how long do we keep doing it? Most of us are happy that we have sufficient income from various sources, be it a pension, investments or superannuation and that if we wish to do something with some of our savings we can do so and not feel guilty about it. But this is not the case for some, who must watch and accumulate wealth, in many cases until the day they die, without achieving all the things they desired. That is my reason for the following - which were Steve Jobs last words - and I make no apology
By KEN CLARKE, WANGARATTA CERTIFIED PRACTICING ACCOUNTANT
kenclarke11@bigpond.com for conveying it to my readers. “I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. “In others eyes, my life is an epitome of success. “However, aside from work, I have little joy. “In the end, wealth is only a fact of life that I am accustomed to. “At this moment, lying on the sick bed and recalling my whole life, I realise that all the recognition and wealth that I took so much pride in, have become paled and become meaningless in the face of
impending death. “In the darkness, I look at the green lights from the life supporting machines and hear the humming mechanical sounds, I can feel the breath of God of death drawing closer…Now I know when we have accumulated sufficient wealth to last our lifetime, we should pursue other matters that are unrelated to wealth. Should be something that is more important: Perhaps relationships, perhaps art, perhaps a dream from younger days. “Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. “God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. “The wealth I have won in my life I cannot bring with me.
“Little Gem in the West ” BABY & CHILDREN’S CLOTHING | Premi - 14 years
“What I can bring is only the memories precipitated by love. That’s the true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. Love can travel a thousand miles. Life has no limit. “Go where you want to go. Reach the height you want to reach. It is all in your heart and in your hands. “What is the most expensive bed in the world? – ‘Sick bed’ … You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear the sickness for you. “Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – ‘Life’. “When a person goes into the operating room, he will realise that there is one book that he has yet
to finish reading – ‘Book of Healthy Life’. “Whichever stage in life we are at right now, with time, we will face the day when the curtain comes down. “Treasure love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.” I trust that after reading this you may have a different outlook on what you are looking to achieve in life, whether it be business or retirement and that your achievements will see you enjoy the things you missed in the accumulation phase. As Steve Jobs said, when he had accumulated sufficient wealth to last his lifetime, he should have looked at other things in life and he may have had a longer time to enjoy them.

Renovation transformation THE home of Wangaratta man Keith Biglin and his family has been totally renovated and transformed in the past few years. The extensive renovations included changes to the floors, walls, ceilings, roof, home heating and cooling, laundry and bathrooms, and the renewal of walls and gardens, and took place over a number of years, from 2009 until the beginning of this year. “When we arrived there was no entertaining space,” Keith said. “We have built two decks and renovated a studio for this purpose. “We have also enjoyed changing the colour scheme from blue, yellow and grey to whites and heritage colours, in keeping with the home’s heritage features.” The best part of the renovation for Keith has been the creation of the studio at the bottom of the garden, which overlooks One Mile Creek and also has tranquil views of gum trees and bird life. The renovation has a number of environmentally friendly features, including solar panels on the roof, stormwater runoff designed to flow back into the creek and low environmental impact, mulched plantings in the garden. He recommended that anyone planning a renovation seek help from interior design consultants, to help maximise the features of their existing home.

Hume will waive the application fee, first year’s package fee ($375), and may also include costs such as registration and discharge of mortgage fees, settlement costs, and second valuations, but excludes costs incurred from your current provider. “Hume’s lending consultants provide you with all the facts before you decide which loan best suits your lifestyle,” Mr Murphy said. “You can choose from a wide range of home and investment loans with options and features to meet your needs. “To get a better deal on your home loan with Australia’s most trusted bank simply speak to your local Wangaratta branch with local staff who will put your needs first.” Call (03) 5721 3322, visit the local branch located at 76 Reid Street, Wangaratta, or go online at humebank.com.au Hume Bank has been recognised as ‘Australia’s Best Mutual Bank’, ‘Best Customer Service’ and ‘Most Trusted Bank’ in the 2015 Mozo People’s Choice Awards - the only banking awards judged by customers.

Renovations in Victoria six per cent cheaper than national average VICTORIAN homeowners are now paying 5.8 per cent less for their home renovations than the average Australian homeowner. Renovation costs remained steady, with just a 0.63 per cent increase year-on-year, despite national prices rising by 1.48 per cent, a new study reveals. The Renovation Consumer Price Index (RCPI) is a Quarterly report released by ServiceSeeking.com. au analysing 52,000 quotes submitted by tradesman on the website. The latest RCPI compares the cost of renovating in Q2 FY16 versus the prior year. Maintaining its position as the cheapest state to
renovate in Australia, the study shows that Victoria is a huge 10 per cent cheaper compared to Western Australia, and 9.1 per cent more affordable than neighbour state NSW. “We believe that Victorian homeowners are shifting away from renovating their homes to purchase new property” says CEO of ServiceSeeking.com.au Jeremy Levitt. “Lower demand has created great opportunities for homeowners to get cheaper prices for renovation jobs, as tradesman are competing for fewer jobs”. The cost of painting decreased by more than seven per cent, with hourly rates dipping below the
$40 mark ($38.73/hr), a record low not seen in any other state. Other popular renovation services such as plastering, plumbing and electrical work, all remained steady. However, Victoria’s landscaping costs were the highest across the nation at $72.34/hr, having risen 10.26 per cent over the past year. “A shortage of landscapers in Victoria coupled with steady demand has driven prices much higher,” says Levitt. In conjunction with this price escalation, concreters and builders are also charging 9.59 per cent and 7.95 per cent more than this time last year.

Review your finances, encourages local broker LOCAL mortgage holders are being urged to take some time to review their finances, with a dynamic home loan market meaning many could be missing out on a better deal. Anthony Igri and Tricia Masin of Choice Home Loans Wangaratta Myrtleford, said many home owners were unaware of how important a regular home loan health check could be. “If you’ve been paying off a mortgage for some time, there’s a good chance that a home loan health check could open up some great opportunities for you,� Mrs Masin said. According to Mr Igri, a home loan health check could result in a lower rate of interest, or the opportunity to unlock equity to fund a renovation. “For those who haven’t revisited their home loan for some time, many are often paying a rate of interest they shouldn’t have to. “In the current low rate environment, many lenders are offering very competitive rates, so refinancing to a new deal can save you hundreds, if not thousands of dollars in interest.� Mr Igri said on a $400,000 home loan, a reduction in interest from five per cent to four per cent could save a home owner an estimated $4000 over the course of one year. A regular review of your home loan arrangements is also important to ensure your mortgage still fits your needs. “In this busy world, our lives rarely stay the same. “Whether you’ve had changes to your income flows, such as shifting from two incomes to one, or you’ve acquired extra debt obligations, as things change it’s important to make sure your home loan has the right features for you,� Mrs Masin said.

EXPERIENCE: Anthony Igri and Tricia Masin of Choice Home Loans Wangaratta. For home owners looking to undertake a review of their mortgage structure, both Mr Igri and Mrs Masin advise seeking out expert advice. “As a mortgage broker, we deal with a wide range of lenders which means we can easily assess whether there is a better option for you out there. “We can also provide tailored advice to ensure your loan set-up best suits your individual needs.� Choice Home Loans Wangaratta Myrtleford are offering free home loan health checks for both new and existing clients. Five reasons for a home loan health check 1. Your mortgage rates are too high
– In the current low rate environment, many lenders are offering competitive rates that may not have been around when you signed up to your existing home loan. 2. You’re finding it hard to manage a variable rate – While variable rates are convenient when the cash rate is low, some borrowers prefer the stability of fixed loan costs. 3. Your home loan doesn’t have the right features – If you want to be able to be flexible in the way you manage your loan, you might want to upgrade to an account with extra features like a debit card, online access or an offset account. Or if you’re not using these and you want to cut costs, you could
downgrade to a more straight forward loan. 4. You want to consolidate several debts - If you have credit card or personal loan debt outstanding, you might want to consider rolling all of these into one loan. Mortgage interest rates are often significantly lower than those offered through credit cards or other loan types, so this could save you cash in the long run. 5. You want to upgrade or renovate – If you’ve paid down a substantial chunk of your home loan, you may be in a position to secure finance for a bigger home, or to finance a renovation. A home loan health check could help you uncover new opportunities.

Be vigilant for roof damage
MICHAEL Jones, Sydney Architect and Archicentre director says that when homeowners experience major storms and heavy rain, leaky roof problems can lead to dangerous situations where water can penetrate walls, roof linings, and insulation leading to the growth of mould and deterioration of the home. “If water has entered the home it is important to have the roof checked for broken tiles, rusted iron and damaged flashing around chimneys.” “Water damage can be caused by a simple lack of maintenance in clearing out guttering or downpipes which cause the water to back up and enter the home”. “Apart from the appearance of the roof, it is also vital that inside the roof cavity is inspected for structural soundness.” Mr Jones said, ”it was important roof checks were done by professionals with the appropriate knowledge and safety equipment as inspecting roofs which may be damaged is a dangerous situation.” “People who put off having leaks
fixed before renovation could be putting themselves and their families at risk, especially if the water was likely to enter the electrical system or appliances”. ROOF CHECK LIST * Check guttering and downpipes are clear of fallen leaves, sticks and other debris. * If there have been storms or high winds look for broken or cracked roof tiles, loose ridge and valley tiles allowing bird and possum entry as well as water leaks. * Check that corrugated iron sheets are in good condition and well attached. * Ensure valley and eaves guttering are free from holes and rust. Even small holes can create large leaks often making extensive replacement necessary. * Make sure flues and chimneys are structurally safe and the flashings around them are secure against water penetration. * Check inside the roof space for water stains or pinholes of light indicating holes in the roof or flashings.
LOOK UP: Keep a close eye on the condition of your roof.
Focus on your budget while renovating WHEN you build a new home, or renovate an existing one, you invest substantial money, time and energy into what invariably is a complex project. Archicentre is often called in when a renovation project is failing, facing major cost blow outs or major structural faults have occurred, situations that
could often have been avoided with proper planning in the beginning. Common traps for renovators without a plan of action include: · Purchasing a ‘renovators delight’ with hidden major structural problems · Having plans drawn up before deciding on a final design leading to costly variations
· Failing to check builders registration and indemnity insurance · Undertaking work that does not conform to local council planning controls · Placing themselves and family at risk with an unsafe renovation site · Failing to recognise the dangerous presence of asbestos.
· Paying up front only to find that work is left half finished · Having difficulty in co-ordinating trades and materials which leads to cost blow outs. If you are not sure where to start your renovation project call Archicentre (1300 134 513) or see www.archicentre.com.au/design-services.

Polaris safety technologies in abundance
POLARIS, which features extensively in the range at Benalla Motorcycles and Power Equipment, has long been a leading brand in all-terrain utility vehicles, and in 2016 more people chose Polaris than any other brand. The hard-working range now extends to 23 models with Certified Roll-Over Protection Structures (ROPS) to satisfy OHS concerns. Combined with seat-belts with interlock device (no seat-belt, no start), and additional occupant restraints, there is a Polaris for every task and with safety front of mind. John Treacy of Benalla Motorcycles and Power Equipment said that with its massive range, Polaris dominated the Side x Side market in 2015 accounting for around half of all Side x Sides sold. Polaris seating configurations start with the unique single-seat ACE which is rated to carry 261kg and towing capacity 868kg. The ACE provides a compact and narrow footprint, for extraordinary access and manoeuvrability and features ROPS and car like controls. Mr Treacy said the Ranger series of Side x Side utility vehicles provides a vast selection of models to satisfy virtually every imaginable requirement and with seating from 2-6 seats, petrol, diesel and electric, two wheel-drive and All-Wheel-Drive plus unlocking rear diffs for turf friendly performance. He added that with innovations such as 4-WheelDescent-Control (4WDC), Polaris has eliminated some of the criticisms from owners operating in hilly terrain levelled at some other Side x Side brands. Accessory choices are abundant and can be found in their 192-page accessories catalogue or on-line. The US company has now become the largest supplier of Side x Side utility vehicles in Australia, indeed worldwide. An Australia wide dealer network is equipped for sales and service. Benalla Motorcycles and Power Equipment is located at 80 Sydney Road in Benalla. For more information on Polaris models, see www. polarisindustries.com.au, call Benalla Motorcycles and Power Equipment on (03) 5762 6177 or see their website at www.benallamotorcycles.com.

Tastes of Rutherglen 2016 - Page 1
12th & 13th March 2016
Rutherglen’s Ultimate Wine and Food Festival
Rutherglen celebrates food and wine HOT on the heels of a vintage described by Rutherglen Wine and Tourism executive officer Natalie Ajay as “really, really fantastic”, this year’s Tastes of Rutherglen is set to make a splash. The event is being held on March 12-13 at 18 participating wineries across Rutherglen and district, and Ms Ajay said that this year, there is plenty to celebrate. She said that reports flowing in from local wineries of this year’s vintage have noted that the flavours, colours, and quality of the wine being produced has been “spectacular”. “This year is just going to be brilliant,” she said. Ms Ajay added that this year’s Tastes of Rutherglen is set to be the most family friendly event yet, with a range of activities especially for families and children scheduled across the participating wineries. She said the events program had many different highlights, including polo at All Saints Estate and the “Movable Feast” at Rutherglen Estates. “You can totally immerse yourself in what Rutherglen’s all about,” she said. “Set over two fantastic days in March, Tastes of Rutherglen is the ultimate food and wine weekend as leading regional chefs and local winemakers partner in a superb progressive lunch in North East Victoria. “Festivalgoers can indulge in matched food and wine combinations at each of the 18 participating Rutherglen wineries, where a signature dish by a regional chef or producer is perfectly matched to the best wines of Rutherglen. “Tastes of Rutherglen provides the opportunity to enjoy the vibe at some of Australia’s most renowned family owned wineries while relaxing and sampling the flavoursome local food and wines. “Gourmands can simply indulge in fabulous dishes matched to sublime wines, or try something more interactive at one of the many wine-focused activities.” Festival entry is just $20 - which provides a festival wristband and tasting glass. Meal+Wine tickets are available at $20 each (festivalgoers may purchase as many as they like).
INDULGE: Michael and Belinda Chambers from Lake Moodemere Estate with Jean-Francois Rupp, of Rutherglen Wine and Tourism, are looking forward to welcoming visitors from far and wide for Tastes of Rutherglen. During Tastes of Rutherglen, Lake Moodemere Estate’s 2013 shiraz will be matched with an estate grown lamb kofta wrap, served with charred capsicum hommus, herb salad, Chiltern forest honey and citrus infused yoghurt, prepared at the Lake Moodemere Café. PHOTO: Kylie Wilson Each ticket is redeemable at any of the 18 wineries to enjoy gourmet meals and matched wine.

Tastes of Rutherglen 2016 - Page 3
12th & 13th March 2016
Rutherglen’s Ultimate Wine and Food Festival
Feast of fun and activities
THERE will be plenty for visitors to enjoy at Rutherglen Estates during the Tastes of Rutherglen celebration on March 12-13. The winery will play host to a range of interesting activities, including a wine and chocolate matching masterclass with winemaker Marc Scalzo, a hawker style market in the courtyard featuring a diverse range of products for sale, and the winery’s “Memorable Moving Feast”. Stroll the courtyard and shop the market stalls, vendors include Renaissance Chocolates, Andrew Cope Pottery, Little Jay Designs jewellery and Magical Spark candles. You can build your own authentic Asian food experience during the weekend, featuring Ayam Goreng (Indonesian fried chicken), Nasi Goreng, Sate and Murtabak (pancakes). The wine match will be the Rutherglen Estates 2015 Arneis, a wine with fresh acidity, generous fruit weight on the midpalate, and a delicate lingering aftertaste. At the masterclass, join Renaissance Chocolates and Rutherglen Estates for an hour of fun and facts which will include four different chocolate and wine pairings. “We will explore just what makes these matches work, and find out what makes a
good quality wine or chocolate just taste better,” Mr Scalzo said. The event will take place in the Tuileries function room and bookings are essential (cost is $20 per person). The feast will see diners enjoy canapes and a first course at a secluded vineyard location at Rutherglen Estates, before making their way to Tuileries to enjoy their main meal and dessert. The event takes place from 6.30pm on Saturday, March 12. Places are limited, please call (02) 60327999 to book. While at Rutherglen Estates, you can sample some new releases, including the 2014 Shelley’s Block and 2014 Estate Durif. Shelley’s Block is a fresh, crisp blend of Rhone white varieties, with Roussanne, Marsanne and Viognier in the blend, adding extra structure and complexity to the wine. The 2014 Estate Durif, meanwhile, has an incredible depth of colour and flavour, with intense varietal berry and stewed cherry notes, mixed fruit spice, licorice, chocolate and cedar from elegant oak enhancement. To find out more about the latest happenings at Rutherglen Estates, see www.rutherglenestates.com.au.
