Tintilla Estate Reviews

Very cozy and homie atmosphere! Friendly staff! Great for small groups.

My parents and Grandparents love it hear, great quality and service!

Very nice and relaxing view while tasting the wine. The service was very nice as well.

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.

Lovely wine. But they pale in comparison to the friendly staff and the amazing experience.

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!

Exquisite wine with flavors driven by strong minerality. You can spend a leisurely afternoon soaking in the views from the verandah. Nearly reminiscent of experience rivaling that of Tuscany

Cute little villa style cellar door. They have olives, and wine tastings. They accommodate groups too at this location. They do different grapes then most in the area. Their temperanillo is nice, try it.

Beautiful location & views
We were welcomed by a lovely host and offered olives and wine to sample.
The olives & wine were amazing!
Highly recommend

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.

Lovely tasting experience of very drinkable wines accompanied by a delicious meat and cheese platter with olives, with friendly service in a picturesque European inspired setting.

Nice little cellar for wine tastings. Wine tastings start at $5 pp and you can also order breads, cheese or meat platters to pair.

Sorry not sorry. Appalling customer service. Don t ask for water or Mary gets upset. Water is on tap in the bathroom though. Would pee here again.

Great small family-owned winery in the Hunter Valley, NSW, Australia. Wonderful food plate to accompany their wines!

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

Fabulous from the moment we arrived, we were a bit spoilt and got the best seat in the house and the hosts were absolutely amazing. Great experience, wines, service and knowledgeable hosts! Loved every minute of it , will definitely return

Beautiful winery with beautiful wines. Staff were really friendly and conducted an enjoyable wine tasting. The premium wine coupled with a great atmosphere made for a great visit.

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!

What a truly fabulous venue! Sitting on the deck, looking over the vineyard down the valley and enjoying the moment. Highly recommended for a wine and cheese platter afternoon.

The Best Wine & all home made Jams ,Olives ,lovely staff enjoy our visit we look forward to visit again

Wow what a service and Wine!!...We arrived unannounced without a booking and John squeezed us in for a taste, Justine and John served us with the most beautiful and warm service. I highly rate their service and the taste of their wine! Thank you John and Justine for taking care of us

My mum and dad love it hear, the costumer serves and I love looking at the grape vines we always go hear as a family tradition and cant wait a couple more years to have. As my mum and dad say The Best Wine In The World!!!
Definitely Recommend.

Beautiful location, delicious cheese plate and great wine!

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.

The cheese and wine tasting was so lovely! On a beautiful property and the staff were so lovely and helpful.

Great little winery and the olives are worth a try too. Family run operation, the sister has joined the group. Great explanation of the wines, truly passionate about their wines.

Very nice place. Great wine, olive oil and friendly people running this place. Used to be the parents before and they had dogs. Now it's the son and the experience has been awesome Everytime we have been there.

We return second time on 4 months
Expectorant very poor no staff on duty
We paid for cheese & olive platter for wine tasting .
But what a let down very poor service .
We couldn t buy the wine we wanted.
So we left very disappointed

Easily one of the best vineyards in the hunter - their reds are truly something special. Highly recommend when you re in the region.

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

Great tasting experience, very friendly and genuine service. Amazing wines and super tasty olives

This place is beautiful! Along with the beautiful, friendly, helpful employees and the beautiful wine and cheese it is a must visit when in the Hunter!

Lovely winery and produce. The Olive Tapenade and Tintilla Chardonnay are a match made in heaven.

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.

Beautiful quaint setting with a most hospitable host that shared her passion of wine making. We also enjoyed a tasty cheese tray and nice variety of olives. Would highly recommend this place. Their aged Semillion was superb!

Amazing wine and olive tasting experience at Tintilla!

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.
