More about the Hunter Valley Wineries

There are a lot to choose from, (about 150 if you’re counting) each with a distinctive way of making and showing their wines. Tasting wines and eating platters of delicious local foods is the main activity, and is a decadent way to spend an afternoon. Near Cessnock is the family run Calais Estate, based in an gorgeous old sandstone country manor. Enjoy an afternoon of winemaking, tasting and touring the winery before selecting your favourite bottle and finding a quiet spot in the vines to enjoy it and a delicious platter of gourmet cheese and other delicacies. Tyrell’s is one of the oldest and best loved wineries in the Hunter. Australian owned and operated since 1858, they take great pride in their history and grapes. Take a tour and see the original bark hut built by Edward Tyrell over a century ago before doing some tasting in the Cellar Door (tasting room). For something a bit different, head to the Krinklewood Biodynamic Vineyard. The husband and wife owners produce certified biodynamic wines using only grapes grown in their Broke Vineyard. By letting their vines naturally ripen over time, the grapes produce wine with an intense flavour and as experts will attest, one that is distinct to this particular location.The gardens of their vineyards and homestead have been landscaped in a rural french style and complete a picturesque day of eating and drinking.
