Hunter Valley Wine and Food Festival 2019
Taste the Hunter's best produce and wine at over 40 events in May and June.
Overview
When it comes to treating yourself to wine and decadent local eats, the Hunter Valley is a top-notch choice. And with the 2019 return of the Hunter Valley Wine and Food Festival, there's now an even better reason to get away for a weekend (or two) of fine wining and dining.
With more than 40 events across May and June, the Valley is showcasing its best wine and produce — think guided winery tours, tastings galore and much more. Foodies can work their way through Semillon and sushi, tuck into some comfort food and brews at Smoky Sundays, or jump on a seven-course journey that will figuratively take you from ocean to paddock. Looking for something more hands on? Head down to Briar Ridge Vineyard, where you can make (and taste) your very own blend of red wine, or heighten your sense of smell at Scarborough Sensory Schooling. Fancy a taste of history? Wander over to Pepper Tree Wines for some museum release wines at its tasting experience.
Closing the festival is the Burning of the Barrel on Saturday, June 29 at Glandore Estate, promising lots of wines, brews and eats and a giant bonfire to warm up by as the sun goes down.
