Good to know

  • The best time to visit Hunter Valley, like all wine regions, is late spring and early summer.  So, south of the equator, that’s November, December, and January.
  • During these months, brand-new, baby grapes are just starting to emerge the personnel at most wineries have a hard time finding enough work to keep busy. 
  • Thus, you can expect highly attentive service, appreciative servers, and unrushed explanations of the entire process of making wine, from seedling to your wine glass. 
  • On the other side of the spectrum, if you book your Hunter Valley sightseeing trip during the fall, you’ll discover that winery employees have their hands full with harvesting, pressing, and fermenting the wine grapes. 
  • So, please forgive the winery staff if they seem a bit frazzled.  In terms of weather, spring and early summer are probably the most pleasant, depending on your preferences. 
  • Do avoid the high heat of summer if you’re sensitive to high temperatures and humidity. 
  • Lastly, check the calendar for school holidays because the wineries can become rather crowded once the college kids finish their exams.
