Beautiful setting nestled away from the centre of Hunter and pitched right on side of the vineyard itself. Had a lovely tasting with cheese on a bench overlooking the vines, great service too. Highly recommended.

Couldn t recommend this place highly enough. Do yourself a favour and pay these guys a visit. The service is so friendly and the guys that work here are really personable and attentive. I bought so much last time I was here because it all tasted so good. We re back for the second time in a month because we had such a good experience last time we had to come back!

I called to check if they do take bookings at 5 pm. They said yes, so we went to do the wine tasting. Apparently they close at 6 pm, so the wine tasting was a marahton. I couldn't really get to taste and know what I was drinking. The cheese platter was not ok. I highly reccomend not to take bookings at 5 pm as the staff will try to get rid of you at 5.30.

One of the best wineries I have been to. The service was absolutely amazing, you can sit at tables, the options are great where you can try 4 for free or 8 for a $5 fee which is redeemable with purchases. The tastings are very generous and you are left alone to try which is good because you don't feel the pressure. The lady who worked there was lovely knew alot about the wines and was very helpful even helping us carry the wine to our car.
The wine itself was great one of my favourites in the Hunter. There is also a variety of other tastings such as olives and oils. One of my favourite experiences in the Hunter valley

Not made to feel welcome, We stood at the front door for aprox 5 mins before we walked in yelling hello, after we were spotted, we were rounded up demanded to sign in although already had,The Wine & service very was average, The $35 meat & cheese platter was worth about $10, We had tried many platters from other wineries and this one was a massive let down, The toilets were filthy, also it was the only winery that charged us for wine tasting after we had bought some of their products. Great View the 2 stars is only for the view...

Loved the intimate wine tasting we shared with friends here at Tintilla Estate. I feel like the experience really set the standard for me - great wine, lovely meat and cheese platter, awesome service! Not to mention, my son had a wonderful time running around and playing with the toys. Will be back next time we're in the Valley!

Lovely place to drop in for a tasting and grab some beautiful olives they have in their little shop.

We visited during covid restrictions, they were careful, spaced everyone out appropriately and had the right checks and balances as required by nsw health.

Wines were great and the staff wine knowledge also excellent.

Will return for their Angus Semillon.

Nice genuine family winery vibe.

Homely & friendly service, great tasting wine, pet friendly place. What more can you want? We become club member after tasting their wine. Favorites are the rose & their shiraz. For the sweet toothed, the Lizzie is subtly sweet, but their fortified wines - guys, the fortified wines are sooo good! (The Shortland Fortified Shiraz & The Vincento are amazing. They are the type to be savored slowly in cold winter nights (or any night for that matter), over some warm apple pies or oozing chocolate cake

We were able to sample some very tasty products here. The prices for some of these products were a little high, so we ended up only purchasing the tomato chilli relish. The staff were friendly and helpful.

"The thing you need to remember is... Wine is Alive!" Fun owners, amazing cellar door. Do yourself a favour and "vertically taste" the young and the aged semillon - both are wonderful, and you'll see for yourself what 10 years does for a fine wine.

Beautiful scenery and decent wines but the service was terrible. There were two severs, but only the woman was actually doing her job (and seemed overwhelmed) while the male just seemed completely oblivious. When we arrived there was no one to welcome us and after five minutes we were welcomed in. For 10 minutes we were ignored and only the female server was on the floor and it was only when we explicitly asked if we could be served that we got service. We were sat towards the back of the only open window in the terrace. We asked if we could open up the wind screen to get a view on our side but the male server immediately said no because it was too windy even though there was no wind at the time. A couple near the window left and we were excited to take their seat but the male server just chatted on and on to a couple and didn t clear the table until another couple arrived. We had asked if we could move to that table but he refused to move us and sat the new couple there. Finally he opened up the screen beside us and said (as if surprised) oh wow that s much better isn t it? As if we hadn t suggested that 20minutes ago... just truly shocked at this man s oblivion and turned us off from buying any of their wines or ever visiting again.

Love the service and good old chat with brothers who run this amazing vineyard. Olives, olive oils and small goods - everything you can find it here. Amazing red wine selection in particular Tempranillo. Thank you for your hospitality.
