Our stunning Cellar Door has a diverse range of tasting spaces and experiences to cater for all occasions. You can stand at the bar for a quick peruse through our extensive range of wines or relax and enjoy yourselves in one of our beautifully appointed tasting spaces. Fireside in winter, on the balcony in summer, down stairs getting serious at our Tasting Lab with a group, or enjoying the luxurious private surrounds of our 1895 Members Lounge. We call it edutainment; a unique hybrid of education and entertainment which we pioneered here at Tulloch by listening and learning from our guests and understanding that no two are the same. At Tulloch our motto is drink better and to us that means much more than just great wine, it’s about creating better experiences created with you in mind.

- b0bbyjaiSydney, Australia1 contributionAmazing experience and lovely staff!!My family and I visited Tulloch Wines over the Christmas weekend and had the most amazing time. The winery and location was beautiful. We were met with the most kind staff who had our wine tasting already set. The lovely Clare had guided us through the whole experience and made our time more enjoyable, she was very helpful and friendly. The wine was excellent and so was the chocolates and charcuterie. We would definitely visit again and would 100% recommend!Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review, we are so pleased you enjoyed your Tulloch experience.

- Jo P2 contributionsA real gemThis was a really special experience for us. Warwick was knowledgeable and generous with his time and pours!! The children were treated to a juice tasting paired with a selection of lollies and snacks. The wines on offer were really great and affordable.Thank you for your kind words and for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review. We are pleased to hear you enjoyed your visit and look forward to welcoming you back again soon. I will make sure I pass your kind words onto Warwick.

- Eugene L230 contributionsAlways excellent, and we keep coming back!Very much one of our favourite wine tasting destinations. I'm sure I've reviewed here before but an update is warranted. We ordered all three tasting boards to make up a lunch for our tasting experience. Love the vertical tasting experience of Tulloch Hunter shiraz. Our host, Mark, was excellent and he let us taste some extra wines to go with the sardines and mussels. I always leave with a lighter wallet but absolutely no regrets!Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review, we are so pleased you enjoyed your Tulloch experience.

- SujitaSydney, Australia3 contributionsSomething for the whole family!A great introduction to wine tasting! Since I was not too sure about the etiquette of wine tasting, I decided to opt for the Wine and Chocolate pairing set and it was amazing- everything from the presentation to the helpful information provided. I chose this winery since it offered options for my non-drinking husband and daughter. The kombucha options were different from the supermarket ones and I thoroughly enjoyed them as well. My daughter loved exploring the 'drinks and snacks/lollies' and got busy with the colouring activities that had been set up for her. I think it might have been better if the tasting experience were in a more authentic area than the restaurant like seating area but maybe that depends on the type of winery tour. Overall, highly recommended for families!Thank you for your lovely review, we are so pleased to hear the whole family enjoyed their time at Tulloch and we hope you will visit again soon.

- Candy O2 contributionsAmazing and beautiful experience.We bought a wine tasting package (Mediterranean Summer Wine Tasting Experience with Seacuterie Board). I absolutely loved the Mediterranean platter, and the wine was immaculate. The mussels, sardines, olives and crackers and to die for. Mark has such great knowledge. He was always available for questions and checked in with us frequently. He truly guided our experience and made us feel comfortable. I definitely recommend anyone who goes to hunter valley to try this experience.Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a great review, we are pleased to hear you enjoyed the Mediterranean Summer Wine tasting experience.

My mother and I booked the mystery wine tasting so I could share the experience with guests at my workplace in the Hunter Valley. I highly recommend this for all visitors from novices to the more advanced wine connoisseurs.
The presentation was great and the hosts were fantastic and very knowledgeable regarding the wines.
The view over the valley and Brokenback range was spectacular whilst sipping wine.
The charcuterie platter was amazing.
This is a great little place to visit for some outstanding wine and great service.
I will definitely return again.
The late picked Verdelho is amazing.

A visit to Tulloch wines is a must for any trip to the Hunter region, infact for us it feels a bit like coming home. From the moment you drive into the driveway you know you are somewhere special.
On this occasion we booked a tasting for my wife and I and we also booked their children's tasting platter for our children. On arrival the staff were very friendly andwe all felt relaxed and settled. Our children were very excited to have their own individual experience which allowed my wife and I to really take in the history of the wines we were tasting and trully enjoy every sip.
Our host was very knowledgeable and added to an overall great experience.
We were treated to some amazing wine and a delicious platter of cheeses and other sorted delights.
The best part was trying their private bin shiraz in different years, 2007, 2014 and 2018 and being able to fully appreciate the ageing process and how the wines mature in flavour throughout the years.
Overal a 10 out of 10 experience

Not many cellar doors were open on New Years Day, lucky for us Tullochs was one of them! We were looked after by Charleigh who was friendly, helpful and answered our questions. Liked how we could sit around a table rather than standing. Wines tasted were very good so we signed up to become members to be able to purchase wines and events in the future. Gardens are beautiful and we will certainly return when we are in the Hunter in the future and recommend to family and friends to make sure that Tulluch is on their list to visit. Thank you Charleigh for a great visit!

This was our third time visiting Tulloch since January this year.
The best cheese and wine tasting in Hunter, mainly because of Charleigh. She is the most amazing person, exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable. Every time we are there Charleigh surprises us with something new, introducing some different wine flavour, or interesting story about Tulloch winery.
This time we brought our friends with us, they were impressed with hospitality, and said Charleigh made them spend much more money than they thought they will.
Cheers to Tulloch and there team!

We were an interesting large group for the Hunter Valley... 6 children (aged 5-10) and 6 adults, only 3 of whom were wine tasting! Luckily, Tulloch had something for everyone. We did our tasting in a lovely room, and the 6 kids got a brilliant tasting plate with three drinks (chocolate milk, sour drink and sweet drink) and matching sweets (marshmallows, sour lollies & other sweets). The non-drinkers did a Kombucha tasting (3 types with antipasto platter), and the three wine tasters were treated to 6 wines of our choice. Very friendly and efficient service, and we all had a brilliant time. So awesome that Tulloch caters for everyone.

There was four of us and we were given 6 wines to taste and a very small Cheese and meat platter. It cost $200 and was very underwhelming. They left us to guess the wines which was quite fun but there was no personal attention and the cheese platter would have been worth a maximum of $20. So it was a big rip off. There was hardly any one else there and now we know why.

Wow!!! This was our first ever wine tasting that we have done and it set the bar so high that the next few we attended at other wineries left us sooooo disappointed! Not only was the wine delightful but the host Rebecca was so friendly, enthusiastic and had such a profound knowledge of not only wines but also the Tulloch name and history and the cheese.
I found her to be a HUGE asset to your buisness and based on her customer service we actually wanted to do another wine tasting with her again but was short on time the next day. We did not feel rushed at all. The venue was gorgeous and so comfortable! I ordered a charcuterie board and it was to die for! So fresh and such beautiful produce!
I will definitely be making another trip to specifically come back here.

This was the second visit to this cellar door. And the second time we had the pleasure of Sam as our host. He was extremely knowledgeable, very personable and he let the wine do the talking when it came to the sales pitch!!! We also had 5 children at the tasting, and the experience for them was first class (highly recommended for children)

We purchased a wine and chocolate tasting experience through RedBalloon. Not only was it great value for money, the experience was well displayed by the staff and our server Tully was very knowledgeable about not only the wine but the chocolate as well. We did not feel rushed when we were there and left feeling happy and well looked after.
Great food, great wine, love Tulloch wines!

Opted just to do the complimentary tasting as we'd just had lunch. This was the only winery we visited that was offering complimentary tastings this trip. The wines were lovely, the staff friendly, and the setting beautiful. Really recommend the pink fizz.
