Wine Tastings

Your first wine tasting happens at a 5-star winery that offers quite the selection of Hunter classics and some modern marvel wines. Compare wine notes, body profiles, sweetness level, and more with your fellow group mates and guide. Carry on to the second winery, one of the Hunter Valley’s original wine families, for a tasting of 6 wines. You'll be accompanied by a cellar door host, who will get you started on your private wine tasting experience. As you see, taste, smell, and learn about the differences between wine varities, you'll also munch on locally-produced cheese that complements the wine perfectly.

Delicious Lunch

Following the boozy endevour is a delicious lunch at a a family-owned & operated restaurant at the Hunter Valley village. Sit down with your now-acquainted tour group and enjoy a selection of delicious food in an idyllic setting of the Hunter Valley. Your lunch will be accompanied by a tasting of 5 local wines. All dietary requirements will be catered to if advised in advance (vegan, vegetarian, coeliac & gluten-free options).

A Sweet Touch
