    • Description

      St Vernay vineyard is located on the Hungerford Hill Estate on the northern bank of Middle Creek. Alluvial clay loam soil is mixed with river gravels, consistently providing fruit with a richer expression of Hunter Valley Shiraz. The 2.7 hectare vineyard is named after the Kirby family home, and was planted in 2001.

      Dark red fruits of plum and cherry lead to a palate with violet, spice and undulating graphite tannins. A spicy medium-bodied wine with great potential for cellaring. A wine to savour.

    Hungerford Hill

    Established in 1967, Hungerford Hill is a boutique estate in the Hunter Valley. Australia’s oldest wine region. Hungerford Hill has a proud reputation for producing distinguished wines and providing a memorable cellar door experience. Guided by accomplished Winemaker Bryan Currie, Hungerford Hill’s able team produce authentic wines, packed with character and interest, with a focus on New South Wales’ cool climate regions.

    In early December 2016 Sam Arnaout purchased Hungerford Hill and will continue the focus on the NSW regions of the Hunter Valley, Hilltops and Tumbarumba. Sam’s vision for Hungerford Hill is to have a much greater focus on the Hunter Valley. To further this goal in 2016 he purchased the renowned Sweetwater vineyard and property near Belford, and the former Wyndham Estate property including the vineyard and winery buildings at Dalwood. The historic Dalwood house is located on the property and is owned by the National Trust.

    Hungerford Hill’s winery is a landmark of the Hunter Valley region, with its unique barrel-shaped tasting room and underground working cellar. The much-acclaimed Muse Restaurant offers some of the finest food in the Valley amidst spectacular views across the vineyards to the Brokenback Ranges.
