WOW is the best way to start this review. David who looked after us is a passionate wine knowledge machine. Every wine we tasted he took us on a journey. Novice or Pro he will captivate you. The wines simply talk for themselves, hence the accolades they receive. However David is that final touch that makes you walk away feeling like you have been on a true wine experience. Had the added bonus of meeting owners Greg and Liz to top off the amazing afternoon. F C R Rose is a MUST try. First Creek will be First Stop on our return to the Hunter…

We were very disappointed to find First Creek wines cellar door closed as we tried our first sav Blanc last night at dinner at the Goldfish restaurant and were highly impressed with the taste. It was very similar to New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. I rang First Creek wine office and they told me that they are not opening for a few months. I’m giving the review 5* due to the wine I tasted. …

Hi Elle May! Sorry to disappoint. I am so glad that you loved the Sauvignon Blanc. At the moment we are staying shut, as one of the largest employers in the valley we have so many families working in our Bottling and Winemaking services that we need to look after. You can always purchase online and we are so keen to have you back in once we open up once more. Again, thanks so much for your great review! If you need anything at all feel free to call our Wine Club on 0249987293.

Incredibly friendly welcome that really surprised us and made our visit 5 out of 5 We were staying for 1 night at the Hermitage Lodge across the road so decided to walk over and spend a couple of hours there and boy were we presently surprised A small cheese board to share and free wine tasting easily passed away our afternoon in lovely countryside with a visit from the local Kangaroos. We eventually left with 2 bottles of wine and a very short walk back to our hotel just in time for dinner I would highly recommend a visit …

Good Afternoon Net1110, So glad that you could join us! It was lovely having you and we are glad that you enjoyed your cheese platter and complimentary wine tasting. It's great weather we have been having lately, it means the roos are getting a little more lively and are coming to enjoy our very green grass in the afternoons. The Hunter Valley really is the place to escape to this Autumn. I do hope you both come back the next time you need a relaxing afternoon to unwined!

Third visit to First Creek and was super disappointed in the way we were treated this time round. We came as part of a shuttle tour with two other couples (Canadian although living in Aus). The young lady who served us was polite but left us often for 5-8 minutes between tastings. I really felt that we were looked at as a 3 young couples who would not spend so not worth the effort. Pity as we bought 3 cases last visit and the next winery sure got our business.…

Hi Em, It is always great when people decide to return after having such a great time at First Creek Wines. We always love to see friendly faces. It should always be a great time when you come back to First Creek and we are sorry to hear that you didn't have the same great experience that you had on your previous couple of visits. Depending on the group we try to pace people whether they are in a rush or if they are happy to sit and relax for a while. Sorry to hear that it seems we got that wrong for your group. We certainly didn't mean to make you feel left out. If you ever have any issues on your visit feel free to talk to one of our staff members on the day and we would love to help you out there and then. We hope that you will make the trip again and let us show you a fantastic tasting experience once more. If you have any questions or would like to talk about it further then please contact us at wineclub@firstcreekwines.com.au Hope to see you again soon!
