What to Expect
The Hunter Valley is home to over 150 wineries, from internationally renowned cellar doors to historic family-owned wineries, and is complemented by outstanding local distilleries and breweries. Join this unforgettable day out that showcases the absolute best of Australia’s oldest wine production region with tasting experiences and delicious food found at a range of boutique venues.
Get collected from Sydney early morning as you head north across the Sydney Harbour Bridge, over the Hawkesbury River, and onto the renowned Hunter Valley. The first stop is an outstanding boutique winery where an expert takes you through tastings of their premium red and white wines including the region’s famous varietals of shiraz and Semillon.
Next, visit a second charming cellar door for more private wine tastings as you work up an appetite for lunch. At a local brewery, indulge in a banquet-style lunch where you can choose (own expense) which local beverage to enjoy with your meal. There is another cellar door nearby or you can walk among the vines taking photos.
Feeling content, your next stop is at Small Mouth Vodka, home of the unique glitter vodka! Here you can sample their organic spirits, have a laugh and get some education on the distilling process. Your day ends with some free time to explore the local village to try some local cheese and chocolate samples, hunt down the Dragon Schnapps for a fiery tasting or browse the shops for a memento.
Throughout the day, you may purchase as much wine and cheese as you please as we take a cooler bag to keep the cheese cool and plenty of room for those bottles or cases of wine. If you are looking for an enjoyable, engaging and fun Hunter Valley winery tour from Sydney, then look no further!
