It was a great experience with selection of wines and a fresh delicious lunch with a bottle of wine of your choice Aiden was a great host with a lot of knowledge about wines and the history of the winery
My wife and I are locals to the Hunter Valley. Cannot thank the Audrey Wilkinson team enough for the afternoon amongst the vines that my wife and I experienced. What can we say? The staff were very friendly. The wine tasting was excellent and the person providing insights was very knowledgeable. The picnic was just right and the shiraz that went with it was perfect. We had a great time amongst the vines. We shall return. Jim & Vicki

It was wonderful winery with exceptional service. Shout out to Aiden for his excellent service and explanation about wine and winery. I proposed to my partner during picnic.
Thoroughly enjoyed our wine tasting and picnic. As first time visitors to Hunter Valley, we learned a lot about the wine history of the area and sampled some impeccable wines. Don’t miss out on the sparkling rosé. It’s top notch 🍾

Tasting 6 wines, of which 3 white, 3 red plus 1 fortified wine. Wines were nice, but it’s definitely not a “masterclass”
Dear Chris, Thank you for joining us for the Picnic Amongst the vines experience and for sharing your feedback. I am pleased to hear you enjoyed the afternoon and the selection of wines.

Your feedback is valuable and will certainly be taken on board as we continue to refine the experience. Thanks again for the feedback and we look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Brian Rooney Operations Manager
Had a great experience, the tour guide was great, the tasting was excellent, answered all the question and the picnic at the end was really nice. Relaxing, good food, good wine and as it was a private tour we were able to have a table that wasn't too loud and out of the normal tasting area.

Our children gifted us a picnic and wine tasting experience to celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary. My husband and I enjoyed our tour and tastings, especially the fortified wines from the barrels. We chose a shady spot on the hillside to enjoy our picnic. The delicious food and wine satisfied our appetite for lunch, the scenic views over the vineyard were lovely and we were even serenaded by some friendly magpies. It was a lovely, relaxing way to spend a few hours together. We're looking forward to opening a bottle of the fortified wines we purchased around a camp fire soon.
Dear Fiona, Thank you for sharing such a special review and congratulations on your 25th Wedding Anniversary! We are delighted you chose to celebrate the occasion with us. It is wonderful to hear you both enjoyed the picnic amongst the vines experience. We are so pleased the food, wine and setting all came together to create a memorable afternoon for you both. Enjoy that bottle of fortified by the campfire and we look forward to welcoming you back again for another special occasion. Kind Regards, Brian Rooney Operations Manager
We had a lovely afternoon, hosted by Mira. She was welcoming, informative and inclusive. We learned about the wines and the history. The weather was not great but it didn’t spoil our experience. The picnic was delicious and we felt it was good value for money.
