Wine Tastings & Masterclasses

Find the wines you love!

Our mission at Ivanhoe is to help you find the wine YOU love. Whether you are new to the wine game or a seasoned wine taster, our experienced (and passionate) cellar door hosts will guide you through the best way to taste and enjoy our premium Hunter Valley wines.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Ivanhoe Wines specialises in small and personal wine experiences for a maximum of 4 guests (children included) for both Personal Tastings and the Masterclass Experience. Please do not make separate bookings for larger groups for a tasting at the same time, this is an internal policy of Ivanhoe Wines.

Any separate bookings believed to be travelling together may be refused entry to the cellar door if exceeding current limits.

Personal Tasting

Every cellar door visitor is invited to participate in a Personal Tasting as part of their Ivanhoe visit. The Personal Tasting includes a ‘how to’ of wine tasting designed to ensure you get the most out of each wine you sample.

Your host will give you hints and tips to help you identify the key characteristics of a wine so you can judge each wine for yourself. By the end of your Personal Tasting, you’ll be able to name your likes and dislikes, so you can find the Ivanhoe wine you love.

A Personal Tasting is a perfect introduction to Ivanhoe’s wines and an ideal addition to your itinerary if you have a few cellar doors to visit. These newfound wine tasting skills will come in handy as you visit other cellar doors during your visit to Pokolbin and the Hunter Valley.

$10 p/person (direct bookings)

Max. 4 guests. Bookings essential.
