Over 160-plus years, Tyrrell's has been a constant vineyard in the Hunter Valley. We found this cellar door was the best for experiencing a much wider range of wines and in the end tried 18 different varieties. The staff were knowledgeable and gave us a good description of each wine we tried. Great value for money. Ended up buying two of the sweeter wines and a port.

I have been involved in Tianrui wine trade for a long time and never expected that I would be lucky enough to visit it in the future.

Great customer service and I really enjoyed how they went from the easily drink white wines to the reds and then finished with a dessert wine. Definitely recommend, go check them out!

Found a 2006 Heritage Semillon in my friends cellar….bottle suggests in 5-6 years it will “develop gracefully”. So a little trepidation we opened an 18 year old bottle of wine. Magnificent!!! A tribute to the winemaker.

Really great wine tasting at a beautiful winery including a great sunset atmosphere. Zac guided us excellently through the wine tasting, which was a real bargain at $15 per person. Excellent wines and one of the best evenings of our trip!

It was a wonderful experience! Zac was so friendly, he explained everything very well and also knew a few German words since my parents’ English is not the best. He gave us enough time to enjoy the different wines but never left us high and dry for too long ;) I would definitely recommend it!
