Hunter Valley Cooking School has now opened in the Wine Country. Executive Chef Phillip Collis conducts the “Hands On” Cooking Schools, where he teaches in the purpose-built cooking school kitchen. The day starts with a vineyard inspection followed by a tasting then it’s down to business. With a minimum of 8 and maximum of 24 people, (Larger groups catered by special arrangement) it is a great experience including a fabulous lunch or dinner, cooked by their own hands. From $200 per person – please see the website for the latest information. Also Pizza Making Classes
Candy making class – If you love eating Candy, you’ll love making Big Kids Candy in this 60 minute workshop. You’ll gain a lot of information in a relatively short period of time, and take home some delicious candy! Working with our Executive Chef, you will watch how to make peanut brittle, marshmallows and boozy chocolate! Fun and games, with take-home recipes. What better way to spend an afternoon? And matching Candy with alcohol – a first for the Hunter Valley!
The onsite Hunter Valley Wine School promises an education of wine daily at 9am. The course starts with a walk through the vineyard to learn how and why a grapevine grows. Then it’s followed by a comprehensive winemaking tutorial with our Cellarmaster. We then take guests through a structured tasting of wines. What are the grape varieties? How are they different? What does one look for, the bouquet, taste, and colour? At the conclusion of the 2 hour Wine school, guests are presented with a personalised Wine Appreciation Certificate. $50pp.
