About
This tour is suited to guests who are looking for an exquisite food & wine matching experience. The aim is to acquaint our guests with dishes from some of the Hunter Valley’s best restaurants matched by gourmet wines made by some of the Hunter Valley’s most talented wine makers. Great gourmet wine and food but all done with a very light-hearted approach and lots of fun.
We pick you up from your Hunter Valley accommodation in one of our luxury vehicles and make our way to the first of our exceptional venues. Along the way you will enjoy some background commentary on the Hunter Valley wine and restaurant scene which may perhaps include a few juicy ‘secrets’!
We will then visit 4 of wine countries most superb winery restaurants and be served up to 9 courses matched with top class local gourmet wines. We often hear people say; “That’s a lot of food” and it is, but we have never seen any of our guests not eat their dessert platter. We aim to arrive at the first venue at 12 noon and envisage finishing your gourmet lunch experience at approximately 4.45 pm after which we will return you to your accommodation.
Fresh menu items change with the season and market availability, so we are unable to tell you menu items each day in advance. What we can guarantee is that you will have a choice of main courses and all other courses and wines will be of the highest standards and the staff at our chosen venues will look after you well.
If you have any dietary requirements, please mention them at the time of booking.
The Progressive Winemakers Lunch is an ideal and fun way to acquaint yourself with some of the great restaurants and wineries in the Hunter Valley.
Note: Additional glasses of wine or any purchases from the wineries direct are not included.

Highest Reviewed Tour Company in NSW
We had a great time on the progressive lunch tour, the food, wine and company were all excellent. Thanks to our driver and tour leader Robyn, for such a brilliant day! We will be back to try the other tours asap.
We took the Two Fat Blokes Progressive Wine Lunch with host Jan Molenaar. Greeted by the most fabulous weather but the day could only be enhanced by all aspects of Jan’s service to all his delightful guests. The four venues, the wine, the food as well as the value for money were exceptional – a beautiful balance. Jan was most considerate of every need, happy to incorporate the extras stops and was never rushed or hurried. The day was relaxed, fun and of the highest quality.
We have been wanting to come to the Hunter Valley for a few years now, and when we found out the weekend was forecasted for rain we were really disappointed. Our tour with Two Fat Blokes was so much fun, we could never have expected to enjoy ourselves as much as we did! We did the Progressive Winemakers tour, visited 4 locations and had a total of 9 courses (including a 3 course dessert platter!). My husband doesn’t drink much wine which is why I looked for a food-based tour, and he ended up enjoying the wine and food pairing even more than I did! The rain made no difference to our tour – the Hunter Valley is beautiful in any weather – our hostess was always smiling and bubbly all day! Will be back very soon for more beautiful wine and food.
