Great tasting experience for the Hunter Unearthed. Our host was very knowledgeable, friendly and took time to make us discover wines on and outside the list. We also had an excellent cheese and cold cuts platter, probably one of the best I’ve ever had. Wines were of great value and variety as well so we bought some after the tasting. Highly recommended!!

Neil the kiwi was fab. A group of friends in our 40s and 50s and he actually taught us all
How to taste wine, not just drink. Had so much fun and the wines were lovely. Great experience

Personal & knowledgeable service, fantastic wines and great atmosphere. Extra highlight is the ability to broaden your experience by tasting iconic and aged wines via special argon dispensing rack with 30, 75 or 150ml tastes at various prices.

Dave was our server, very knowledgeable. But disappointed that there was only one Pinot Gris and as I don’t really like anything else I am pleased I didn’t pay for the tasting as we r members. He did cater to the boys who drink red. Still worth a stop in as you can try different wine makers in the one place.

Hi Trudy, we're always happy to see members call in and take advantage of their complimentary tastings. We have more than a dozen different white varieties and we want to showcase as many of these as we can, so it would be odd for us to have more than one Pinot Gris available for tasting (and disappointing that we scored a poor review because of it) especially as the Hunter Valley is famous for Semillon and Chardonnay and Pinot Gris is quite rare.
Hopefully next time we can tempt you to try some other varieties and we look forward to seeing you on your next visit to the Hunter!

7 of us had an amazing wine tasting experience yesterday with Neil!
It was probably the best and most unique wine tasting we've ever had!
The bottles were disguised in very colourful jackets! We were tasting wine blind, to let our senses try and pick up what wine we were tasting, what we thought it was, was often wrong! Ha ha
Neil is so knowledgeable and you can tell he is passionate about his job.
A fabulous afternoon had! And really enjoyed The Little Wine Co. wines! Jo & Brian

Made a booking in November for $20 a head which included white wine tasting and some nibbles. When we arrived we were informed that our booking included 4 white wine samples but no food. The wines we sampled were lovely, diverse and we bought 4 bottles. A little disappointed with the confusion re: our booking as I had booked this experience as a birthday treat for myself.

Thanks for your feedback and glad to hear you enjoyed the wines. As to the confusion, when you booked you paid for two white wine flights (which cost $20 each) and at the time of booking there is the option to order a Tasting Plate to accompany the flight ($30 each) or you are welcome to order a Tasting plate when you arrive.

Neil was amazing. We learnt so much and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We have been to many different vineyards and this was by far our favourite experience!
Thank you so very much!

Just had a 5 star experience with Neil from the Wine House. After being to numerous cellar doors, we hit the jackpot with Neil. Neil took the time to teach us how to taste wines properly, his patience and knowledge was superb! Unlike the other places we had visited, Neil took his time, explained and took a genuine interest in our likes/dislikes in order to help us find our favourite flavours. Ask for Neil when you get to the winehouse, or better still, make a booking! We were originally looking for The Little Wine Company (as listed on google), but it turns out TLWC is just one of the (many great) wine makers available at The Wine House - It was a little confusing to find at first. All in all, we were educated, entertained and very well looked after at The Wine House! An extra special mention goes out to Neil, thankyou for making our weekend! Just a thought: Neil should be running complimentary 'How to' wine tasting lessons every week/weekend. Make a Facebook event and let other happy holiday makers enjoy the amazing service (and wives) we were so lucky to experience!

We thought the service was amazing and really appreciated how generous our host was, allowing us to try more than 8 wines, just because there were so many good ones to try!
We also liked the vision of Wine House, which was set up to house great and local wines in order to help out other wineries and give visitors a true Hunter Valley experience.
