Uses more traditional method to make wine, with the owner being a chemist himself basically constantly trying new mixes, you just constantly get new surprises from them!

The space is beautiful, with an open and airy tasting room overlooking the vast vineyard (one of the few wineries in the area that grows its own grapes). There's a little something different about the wines here--the flavors are something of their own. I brought back a bottle of their oaked semillon, which was light and refreshing and stored in California Oak barrels (I'd get the same thing back here in CA if I could, but you certainly don't see a lot of semillon around here), as well as a bottle of their shiraz, which had a peppery kick to it. The lady who led us through the tastings (we had come with a tour group) was very sweet and seemed to love her job. We ended our visit with a tour of the wine cellar and the lovely outdoor area of the building, which reminded me of being in Tuscany but is apparently modeled after Southern Spain. I loved all the little details of the decor. Definitely worth stopping at!

We were led into a private room and our wine guide was excellent and super friendly - she knew shit out of some wines. They had water out for us to sip and even had a cheese plate to nibble on. Here are some of the highlights 1. We sipped semillon (semi-ee-on) which are sweet whites, made from grapes in the Hunter Valley cold micro climate. 2. We sampled their Sav Blanc which is an easy drinking wine and costs about $20 per bottle. 3. Their Verdelho pairs well with spicy foods and curries :) 4. Their Reserve Chardonnay is made from grapes grown in volcanic ash and while it starts off with some oaky flavour it finishes fairly dry. 5. One of the favs was the Rose which took about three sips to really get your brain to taste. They make this using the French style using Shiraz grapes and the skins are left on for a few hours. 6. Another popular win is their Pinot Noir which is made using a wild ferment rather than controlled it is a Pouters favorite. Another bit of knowledge I learned at this estate is that it is illegal to add sugar to wines, but the longer you leave the grape on the vine - the sweeter the grape! Highly Recommend!!!! We also left with quite a few wines.

A cute thing is that they have postcard size cards with a recipe pairing for each of their wines, make sure to grab one if you buy a bottle. Also, the bathrooms were immaculate.
