Hunter Valley cellar doors are open soon for wine tasting
With regional travel almost possible it's time to get planning on where to go. The Hunter Valley has never looked so good and with the June long weekend just around the corner now seems like the perfect time to plan some wine tasting.
Visits to the Hunter Valley are of course looking a little different these days, and with the rules changing on a daily basis our biggest tip is to plan ahead and make a call to each cellar door and restaurant to avoid any disappointment.
