Great winery visit
May 2021 • Business
Our first visit and we will go again. Really friendly staff, nice set up and great wines (think we left with 15 bottles!).

Best winery by a long shot
Sep. 2020
By far our favorite winery. Excellent set up for tasting. Each person is sat in front of a place mat with glass spots to let you know what you’re drinking so you get to taste a bit of all they had to offer. Free to taste. Loved the set up and bought heaps of wine.

A must visit cellar door.
Dec. 2020 • Solo
Friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable staff. A great selection of whites, reds, rose and sparkling on tasting - cost $5. Highly recommended when visiting the Hunter.
Tip, given there are capacity constraints these days (due to Covid-19), I’d recommend calling ahead to book - particularly if you’re getting into the busier holiday period.

Exceptional Service from Tina
Oct. 2020
We recently visited Capercaillie Winery as part of our wine tour.
Tina was an exceptional host (15/10 for her service). It is obvious that she loves her job and is passionate about wine. She was really friendly, funny and knowledgeable.
To be honest, the wines weren't the most flavourful in my opinion. They weren't bad (far from the worst wines I have tasted) but they had quite a mild flavour. We did end up purchasing a bottle of Moscato though as it wasn't super sweet and tasted refreshing - it will be perfect on a warm summer afternoon.
There was the standard $5 tasting fee per person that was waived when purchasing a bottle.

Good wines and pleasant hostess
Dec. 2019 • Couples
A short walk from the back of the Crowne Plaza Hotel. We tasted 8 great wines, and Tina our host was very pleasant and knowledgeable. Tastings are free, but wine purchases are relatively expensive. We enjoyed our visit.

Great host, great wines, amazing voice
Dec. 2019
Our group of 10 had the pleasure of having a private tasting with Tina and she was a great host and she gave us our highlight of the day when her sister walked out with a ukulele and they both sang happy birthday to my wife followed by an amazing rendition of Girls just want to have fun.
Really nice wines as well as some cheese and biscuits to go with the tasting.

Thank you Tina for marking us so welcome. Even gave a coffee to our miserable designated driver. Great wines, great value and a wonderful host! Best of luck for your wedding.

Great little winery
Aug. 2019 • Friends
Visited this winery over the last weekend and were very impressed with the standard of its wines. The staff there really know there stuff and are friendly and happy to help. If your really fortunate and Tina is on the Cellar door ask her to sing you a song she has an amazing voice. If you in the Hunter make sure you stop by it’s definitely worth a visit.

Great host!
Jul. 2019 • Friends
We recently visited Capercaillie Wines, as part of tour of various wineries - and Tina easily made this the best stop of the day.
This wasn't just us throwing back wine tastings - we sat and learnt SO much on not only the wines we were being served, but the overall process of making them, as well as history on the overall Hunter region.
Can't recommend stopping here enough! A very lovely and dedicated team.

Capercaillie Wine Hunter Valley
Feb. 2019 • Friends
We have found the wines from this company first class and having just purchased wines from them for a wedding, our friends at this function asked where they came from because they would like to buy them for their own use. I was very happy that I chose Capercaillie Wines. The staff are very friendly and helpful.
