Producer of premium quality wines from the south-west slopes of NSW - an area beginning to emerge as the source of some of Australia s most interesting and exciting premium and super-premium wines. The Bidgeebong Triangle encompasses Tumbarumba in the foothills of the Snowy Mountains, the Hilltops district centred on Young and the Murrumbidgee plain around Gundagai, on the Hume Highway about halfway between Sydney and Melbourne. The name Bidgeebong is a combination of Murrumbidgee and Billabong. The Murrumbidgee River is the lifeline of the region. Billabongs, meaning places of still water in the Wiradjuri language, were the gathering or meeting places of the original owners of the area, the Wiradjuri tribe. The three wine regions provide Bidgeebong winemaker Andrew Birks with a range of options that will ensure consistency of both style and quality in wines released under the Bidgeebong label.
