Taste of the Country

Set in the hills of Wamboin, just 30 km east of Canberra, the cool-climate winery of Contentious Character gives you a taste of the beautiful countryside outside Canberra. Above all our yearly Festival Trip gives you a chance to relax and recover from the Festival’s exertions with the best things life has to offer – music included.

Wine tasting, a two course lunch and two musical performances make for a quality experience. Quatuor Van Kuijk serves French quartet delicacies and on this occasion Katie Yap strikes up the folk fiddle.

The coach leaves Canberra at 10.30 am and returns at 4.30 pm.
