ORANGE WINERY GETS FUNDING BOOST

The cool-climate wines and seasonal produce of Orange will soon be within reach of more visitors thanks to a tourism funding boost from the NSW Government.

Parliamentary Secretary for Western NSW Rick Colless said Ross Hill Wines had secured $150,000 from Destination NSW’s Regional Tourism Fund, which will go towards the development of a new cooking school and onsite function centre.

“Hatted chefs, Michael Manners and Simonn Hawke will lead the cooking school using some of region’s best local produce, while the function centre will conduct wine and spirit education courses, providing fantastic upskilling opportunities for the local hospitality and tourism industry,” Mr Colless said.
