My 21 year old son and his friend and I went on this highly recommended Wine tasting to Hunter Valley. There were 9 of us in the nice air conditioned minivan . Colin was our guide. It was a rainy day in Sydney and was rainy as well in the Hunter Valley. Despite the inclement weather, we had a fantastic time. Colin was an excellent tour guide. He was so knowledgeable, easy to talk to and very enthusiastic. He really ensured that we all would enjoy the trip. There were some people in our group that did not speak English and I believe they still had a wonderful time as well. Our first stop was at the Hunter Wine Lab and we tasted many many wines with Nathan as our wine guide. He is also the owner and vintner there. He even let us try some beers that he brews there as well. This was definitely the best stop according to my party. We then went to McCaffrey's Estate and had another set of excellent wines and fantastic fantastic cheese selections to accompany the wine. Mel was our host and she was great. At this point, I am a bit hazy/drunk but I think we hit one more winery which was excellent and then an excellent lunch of pizza and salad. I don't remember which order we did these in because I was feeling pretty good. Our last stop was at a distillery that specializes in flavored gin vodka and liquor that glitters. Our server was not very personable however I suspect that he was not thrilled with our behavior. The trip is a long one. We left promptly at 725am and returned around 7 pm. It is about 2.5 hours to the Hunter Valley. However I would highly recommend this for anyone who has a day to kill and likes good food and wine. We even got to see the wild kangaroos that are in the valley in abundance. Definitely go on this trip. You will have a blast.YFSG
