Biggest event for winemaking region

THE organisers of this year’s Winery Walkabout are hopeful recent rainfall in the region will hold out for the event. Tickets for Sunday have sold out and a small number of tickets are still available for Saturday. Rutherglen Wine and Tourism executive officer Natalie Ajay said about 14,000 people would attend the event and a further 6000 would enjoy the region’s attractions at the weekend.
