Wine tasting w/ Chocolate pairing?! That's the perfect combination!…read more This place is a must visit when in Hunter Valley. Each chocolate was perfectly created to pair with their wines. Their Verdelho & Verscato were deeeeelish, and is a must to bring back home =) The team member assisting us was so lovely, and the passion she has for her job made our experience even more pleasant.

First: this is a winery / cellar - not a wine bar. Second:…read morewhat a great place for a visit. the winery was slammed when we got there- but there was plenty of room for 6 of us to sit and taste. Our server poured heavily and got us through the six (of 10 or 12) selections we asked to try. white's the specialty, but i like the reds best. classy tasting room with indoor and outdoor seating - lots of history displayed about the family and winery. room for large parties downstairs. one could easily host a wedding or reception here. nice people, nice wines, great locale. Third: if you can get to Hunter Valley and Tulloch - do it! :) Date of visit: 12/30/14

The Hunter region is now loaded with fine and fresh food restaurants. While Margan had the look and…read moreingredients to match the best of them, we felt it came up a bit short on the occasion of this lunch. Featured dry-aged beef was gristly, vegetable sides to spicy, and scallops over-seared. On the opposite hand, the apple soufflé should not be missed under ANY circumstances! We would likely explore other dining in the region before considering a return to Margan.

Sunny and clear sky, what better way to start the day in the Hunter Valley than enjoying a relaxing…read morebreakfast over a magnificent view. Located in Broke Fordwich sub-region, there are fewer wineries in the area therefore a resounding quietness on this side of the Valley. The restaurant has a kitchen garden complete with chooks freely roaming inside their considerably large pen. The produce they use are either local or come fresh from the garden, the free range eggs, heirloom garden vegetables, strawberries, herbs and others, even their wine comes from the grapes grown in their vineyard here in Broke Fordwich. I had the baked eggs with chorizo, tomato, saffron and manchego. A hearty combination and accompanied with a locally sourced coffee definitely warmed my morning. My husband had the Margan Breakfast. It's their version of a big breakfast with eggs, bacon, tomato and black pudding. It was tasty and my husband thought the black pudding was a very tasty hashbrown, and I didn't want to burst his bubble. And don't get me started on the buttermilk pancakes my son had, with honeycomb, banana and creme fraiche. The pancake was fluffy, the honeycomb added texture and the creme fraiche balanced the flavour without being overly sweet. The staff were warm and attentive. The restaurant normally operates for lunch and dinner, but they open for breakfast on Sunday. It's best if you book in advance, as their opening hours may vary. Then we went to the cellar door to taste and purchase some of their award winning wine. It was a perfect way to start the day!
