Located in the Broke Fordwich subregion of the Hunter Valley, Krinklewood makes certified biodynamic and organic drops on its sustainably run vineyard. This boutique winery boasts incredible views of the Brokenback Range as well as an old-world cellar door set within Provence-inspired gardens. You'll likely catch a glimpse (and hear the songs) of the region's abundant birdlife, too, thanks to its remote setting.
Sample wine varieties typical of the region, including verdelho, semillon and chardonnay, along with a sparkling shiraz, rosé and Krinklewood's Wild range of blends. To complement the wine, snack on the cheese platter ($27.50) of all organic cheese, served with locally-sourced olives, chutney, apricots, almonds and cornichons. The cellar door is open Friday to Sunday, from 10am–4.30pm, so make sure to plan accordingly.
