Tyrrell's

Had an absolutely enjoyable time here with friends on our wine tasting. The gentleman assisting us had a great personality and very knowledgeable. He also was able to speak some mandarin as well as many other languages! I learned a bunch about wine and aging, which I was curious about. It was great picking his brain and tasting was great too. The grounds were very well kept and it was beautiful. A great way to finish the day in Hunter Valley. Will come back on my next visit as well!

Matilda is a phenomenal host on our journey into the world of Tyrell’s wines. We have ventured into the wines of the Hunter Valley many times and this experience was up there with the absolute best and a definite highlight of our weekend away. Situated within a vintage style tasting room, we sampled whites and reds with a super in-depth back story and what to expect from the wines. We walked away with a much greater appreciation for wine and work involved, all through Matilda’s expertise mixed in with phenomenal knowledge. We will be back and organising an appointment for another fantastic tasting experience.

I love it, great experience and amazing wines! The staffs were so friendly with us and we enjoyed a good time. The tasting experience was $15pp. I’ll recommend it for everyone and I’ll come back soon

We had an excellent private wine tasting experience. Every wine was delicious, but especially the aged Semillons. The winery is set on top of a picturesque hill overlooking the mountains. Highly recommend if in the Hunter Valley.

The first winery we visited in Australia and we have a very good impression with the place. We were here on a weekday and did make a reservation for the tasting and we were glad we did. The tasting went so well and lasted longer than one hour for our group. We ended up tasting almost 15 labels! I personally like several of them and bought back more than a dozen! Thanks the tasting conductor! We did ask his name but I forgot..could be Scott!

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.

We had a wonderful experience at Tyrrell’s Wines, thanks to the excellent service from Glenn. He was incredibly knowledgeable and technical in his explanations, while also being very friendly and approachable. He made us feel completely comfortable to ask questions and clearly demonstrated a deep understanding of the wines and the winemaking process. The setting was also really special, surrounded by wine barrels and steeped in history, which made the experience even more memorable. A must-visit in the Hunter Valley!

The best wine tasting I’ve ever been to. Scott was generous with his time and his knowledge, and served us incredibly well during our stay. A big thank you to the Tyrrell’s team! We’ll be back (with friends)!

This is a great stop for any wine enthusiast. Make plans to put Tyrell's Wines on your list. Among key points.... 1. Vines that are over 135 years old! 2. Excellent, award-winning wines. 3. See the whole process from start to finish as a part of the tour. 4. This winery has remained in the family from its inception in the mid-1800s. The founder's original cottage and first home are still on the property.

My favourite winery in the Hunter Valley! They make the best wine in the region, arguably in Australia, and the location of the cellar door is stunning. 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.

Definitely come for the daily 10:30am winery tour. It covers the basic wine making process but also the winery and family history (still in the same family), at the end there is a small tasting. We visited on a Wednesday morning and there was a small crowd but never felt crowded anywhere in the tour. After the tour we visited the regular cellar door to taste a couple others, quick and friendly service.

Absolutely phenomenal service, and an amazing chat with Trent and Scott. Could not fault the time I spent here at Tyrrell's; if you're looking for time we'll spent and personable, friendly staff, don't go past here! I'd come back to Tyrrell's again and again just for the friendliness! Could not recommend them more highly.

My experience with Semillon is usually with noble rot dessert wines. Barsac, Sauternes. In Hunter Valley, they've pioneered a non oak matured bottle aged technique that is fairly unique to Australia. Dry, citrusy, and toasty all in a long linger on the taste buds. Paired with a rich shellfish, mushroom, saffron broth and you have a killer combo. Im not sure I'd be able to sit and drink this alone but with food it certainly is a great enhancer.

nice rustic setting with a stunning view of the hills. photo ops abound. the wines were good too. definitely worth a stop. the pourers were reasonably friendly.
