Kawal Rock Distillery

Welcome to Kawal Rock, a unique vineyard and distillery based in the beautiful Hunter Valley. We hand-craft bespoke spirits and wines made from local ingredients, and from our own 60 year old vines. Our vineyard is located at the base of the Rock which holds significance to the local Wonnarua people. Legend has it that the twin wedge-tailed eagles that live on the Rock and can often be seen circling the vineyard are ancient protectors of this land. The Wonnaruan name for the eagle is Ka-Wal, our namesake.

Spirits

All of our spirits are grape-based. We carefully select our ingredients and hand-craft all our spirits from scratch, distilling them in-house. This process gives each spirit its own unique flavour profile, enhanced by what we like to call the “Spirit of the Grape”.

Wine

Our grapes are lovingly tended on vines that have been growing for over 60 years. The vines are a mix of muscat and most notably our freshly planted Nero Di Troia, a delicious red variety that is hardy to the ever changing conditions of the land and will be ready for Summer 2023.
