\nUnearthing Mudgee: Vintnews Regional Tour<\/b><\/p>\n

Here are some of the great wines and venues we uncovered during our recent trip to the Mudgee region. For more details, see: www.visitmudgeeregion.com.au<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Roth’s Wine Bar<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
BYO (and donate) your classic Vegemite glass
for a free fill of 10\/80. <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

This place is dripping with history – among other things. The perfect finish to any day touring around Mudgee is to wind up (or down) at Roth’s Wine Bar<\/a> in Market Street. First licensed in 1923, the premises maintains possibly the last surviving Governor’s liquor license in Australia. Funky and fun, there’s great food<\/a> and music too.<\/p>\n

If you’re game, ask for a dose of 10\/80*, a secret recipe Kirsty tells me is a blend of “a wine, a fortified wine and maybe something else”. Apparently the original mixture was served back in the day, speakeasy-style in classic Vegemite glasses, and if you have an old one lying around and want to donate it, the first fill is on the house.<\/p>\n

And why Madame<\/i> Kirsty? Well, according to local history, you could once rent rooms by the hour at Roth’s and Kirsty has a keen sense of ‘tradition’.<\/p>\n

* for non-rural types, 10\/80 is a common and highly toxic poison used for vermin control. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n
