Brilliant wines, and beautiful surrounds. I ordered some wine online several weeks after our visit, because I loved it so much. The order came through incorrectly, but Iron Gate then sent me more wine to apologize for the mistake, which was unnecessary but a wonderful surprise! Top quality service and delicious wines - we'll be back again and again.

We booked previously as were doing a 3 day 'tour' of wineries we hadn't visited beforehand. Mandy was an excellent host who knew the history of the vineyard and it's very Spanish design together with the wines. This was one of the few wineries that waived the tasting fee on purchase...more should take note! The Blanc de Blanc was an excellent start and my wife loved the Verdelho. I went for the Primera Semillon which was excellent but I really liked the 2019 Chardonnay. I finished with the 2019 Mudgee/Hunter Shiraz...a very nice drop. Highly recommended

We had a fantastic visit, with a relaxed wine tasting with the lovely owners and their cute Pom! Great range of wines, with some more unusual grapes/blends - all were fabulous. Took quite a few home...

We originally visited this winery a few years ago when it was owned by a lovely man and his wife. We had the best time and for this reason we decided to go back.
It is now owned by a different family but I’m happy to say we were still impressed by the friendliness of the staff and the bonus was that we still love their wines (not as big a selection now though).
We will definitely return!

Such a gorgeous winery.
Staff were kind and great experience of wine tasting. Not too quick, not too slow... next time, I would like to stay a bit longer with food.
We got $5 refund per person from tasting after buying wine bottles. Not every place in Hunter Valley does the same.
It was still lovely in the rain and I felt like I was having a short break somewhere in southern Italy.
Would like to visit again for sure!
Such a lovely place ♥️

We were in your establishment 29.11.17 and purchased a case of wine to be shipped to the US. To this date we do not have the wine and have not received any communication about it. I have also submitted an email inquiry via your webpage.
We also purchased another case of wine from another vendor that was received 3 weeks ago.
