News: Our First Trophy 2009 Highland Gold (Late Harvest Sauvignon Blanc) was awarded a gold medal and trophy at the 2009 International Sweet Wine Challenge. (Read article.) It’s easy to find us now! Orange Highland Wines & Gardens is the first business in the Orange district to be allowed to display the large brown & white NSW government-approved tourist attraction signs. Read article. In our case, in order to have the full name of the business, it required 2 applications: - the Wineries category and - the more difficult Outdoor/Nature based – Botanical Gardens category (we’re one of only 3 gardens in NSW with these signs). Events: Sculpture in Orange Highland Gardens The People’s Choice winner in the Sculpture Exhibition held during October and November 2009 was “Midnight Dream” a horse created out of fallen timber by Vicki Blazely of Carcoar NSW. Margaret and Roger Nancarrow of Orange were the winners of the six bottles of Orange Highland wine. F.O.O.D. Week: For more information about F.O.O.D.
