Went on a road trip from Sydney to the "Napa Valley" of New South Wales Australia. This winery was…read moreour first stop. Tasting was only 10$ per person and we went through a wide selection of whites, reds and sweeter wine. I realized that the experience could have been a bit better had we arrived there before the day was almost ending. The tasting felt a bit rushed but our sommelier was nice and helpful nonetheless.

I also love all of the family history they have - you can see the original timber hut that the founder built in the 1850s! The cellar door staff are professional story-tellers and have exceptional wine knowledge; unlike some wineries that seem to hire teenagers who just pour you wine and that's it. You can't visit the Hunter without going to Tyrrell's.
