Hunter Valley

Located just an hour north of Newcastle is the stunning Hunter Valley wine region. The area produces world-class Semillon, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Pinot Noir wines. The Hunter Valley turned out to be our favorite wine region in Australia. While we were there, we discovered that there is so much more to do in the region than just drinking wine. We highly recommend you commit to at the very least a day trip from Newcastle.
