McLeish Experience
Sun, Semillon and Shiraz: the picturesque McLeish vineyard has it all, thanks to the launch of the Wines of Distinction Tasting and Regional Tasting Plate. Guests can further enjoy the McLeish hospitality, they are given a picnic rug, too, to set up where they please on the estate’s stunning hill-top vantage point.
The wine list
Featuring over 30 wines, the wine list features the multi award winning World’s Best Semillon and iconic aged reds. Discerning drinkers will be able to get their hands on limited back vintages from our boutique vineyard. There are also good value vinos too, with the popular McLeish Semillon / Sauvignon Blanc, Victoria Chardonnay and red blends.
The food
McLeish Estate has put together a range of charcuterie and cheese plates that are designed to share and pair with the wines. For something more substantial, there’s our Regional Tasting Platter for two that can be pre ordered (24 hours’ notice). The McLeish family called on chef Matt Dillow to design the uniquely Hunter Valley tasting plate. He has worked with the family for the past 15 years, catering for the annual Celtic Feast wine dinner. With local produce and homemade hummus and relishes. Delicious zucchini and pine nut frittata, Everything is fresh and paired with high-end wines.
