Ultimate Winery Experiences Australia

Welcome to UWEA, Swinging Bridge

Esteemed family-owned winery Swinging Bridge, situated in the picturesque region of Orange in New South Wales, has become the latest addition to Ultimate Winery Experiences Australia (UWEA), expanding the prestigious collective to 30 members.

Located just a four-hour drive from Sydney, Swinging Bridge joins Printhie Wines as the second winery in the Orange region to join UWEA. Known for its production of premium cool climate wines, Swinging Bridge specialises in Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, two varietals for which the Orange region is renowned. Additionally, the winery produces Riesling, Shiraz, and traditional method sparkling wines.

With commanding views of Mount Canobolas (Ghanabulla), an iconic landmark towering at 1395 metres, the Swinging Bridge cellar door offers a range of wine experiences, with further developments in progress. Currently, guests can indulge in the Savour with Swinging Bridge experience, which includes a seated tasting of seven elegant cool-climate wines paired with chef-designed canapés.

For a more immersive experience, guests can Indulge with Swinging Bridge, commencing with a vineyard tour that unveils the winery's story and its hands-on, sustainable approach to viticulture and winemaking. This is followed by a tasting of premium range wines, including exclusive museum releases, perfectly paired with a four-course degustation-style lunch menu.

Swinging Bridge hosts a variety of events throughout the year, ranging from intimate long lunches and dinners to masterclasses, educational experiences, and gatherings featuring canapés and live music.

Swinging Bridge is the fifth winery from New South Wales to join UWEA, joining Tyrrell's, Brokenwood, and Audrey Wilkinson in the Hunter Valley, and Printhie Wines in Orange.

The cellar door is open seven days a week and can be found at 701 The Escort Way, Orange, New South Wales.
