Aurum Winery Tastings and Canape Pop-Up Experience

Discover Aurum, Australia's award-winning modern honey wine, at an exclusive pop-up cellar door every Saturday in the historic Newrybar Hall. Set in the heart of the Byron hinterland, this unique experience invites visitors to explore a new style of wine that is redefining tradition. Handcrafted in small batches using rare honeys from the Northern Rivers, Aurum's wines are elegant, dry and refreshingly distinctive – worlds apart from conventional mead. From sparkling champagne-style bubbles to crisp whites, vibrant rosés, smooth reds and indulgent dessert wines, each tasting reveals floral, mineral and clean flavour profiles that have impressed even top sommeliers in blind tastings. Guests can enjoy a guided tasting flight of six wines, perfectly matched with curated canapés designed by Michelin-starred chef Anthony Hamon. Alongside the wine experience, visitors have the opportunity to purchase Aurum's bottles at special cellar door prices, as well as medicinal-grade Manuka honeys. Whether stopping by for a quick tasting or booking a group table for a leisurely afternoon, Aurum's pop-up cellar door offers an unforgettable outing in the charming village of Newrybar – the perfect weekend escape in the Ballina hinterland.
