What to expect
You'll visit three tasting venues across the valley's key wine areas, learning what makes Hunter Valley Semillons and Shiraz distinctive. The centrepiece is lunch served outdoors among the vines at a boutique producer—casual but proper, not a rushed affair. Afterwards, the distillery introduces you to regional spirits before you get time to browse the famous deli and nearby cheese and chocolate stockists. Note that the light lunch may not accommodate all dietary requirements, so mention any restrictions when booking.
Good to know
Bring sunscreen and comfortable walking shoes. The tour runs 4.5 hours; plan accordingly if you have evening plans. Dietary restrictions should be flagged early, as the light lunch has limitations. All areas are wheelchair accessible with accessible vehicle transport included.
