There’s something about the great outdoors that heightens every sense. The air is fresher, the colours more vivid—and when you finally sit down to taste wine and cheese, the flavours seem amplified, alive with the essence of where they come from.

Your journey begins on Corunna Lake, a jewel of the Batemans Marine Park. Guided by local experts, you’ll paddle a gentle 3.5 km across pristine waters fringed by spotted gum forests and sandy shores. Mt Gulaga, a place of deep cultural significance, rises in the distance, keeping watch as you glide along. Keep your eyes peeled for sea eagles soaring above or jellyfish drifting silently beneath your kayak. This is an ecosystem in motion, and you’re right in the heart of it.

And then—your paddle flows into indulgence. Arriving at Tilba Valley Winery, just steps from the water, you’ll settle in for a tasting of three handcrafted wines paired with a generous platter of artisan cheeses. The connection is clear: the same landscapes you’ve just explored nurture the vines and dairy herds that make these award-winning flavours possible.

Once your tasting concludes, the day is yours. Linger on the deck with another glass, enjoy a leisurely lunch overlooking the vines, or simply savour the glow of a morning spent immersed in nature and finished with the tastes of Tilba.

Tour logistics are simple: start at Tilba Valley Winery at 8:30 AM, shuttle to the lake for your paddle, and arrive back at the winery by 10:45 AM—perfectly timed for your tasting experience at 11:00 AM.
