Choosing a Tasting Experience

You don't need to leave town for a sit-down wine tasting in Newcastle. Inner City Winemakers runs a working urban winery and cellar door on Church Street in Wickham, and the wine in your glass is poured by the people who made it.

A booked tasting covers the whole range in one sitting – sparkling, whites, reds and aged fortifieds – with a cheese platter to share at the table. Tastings are hosted for groups of up to eight, which keeps it conversational: there's room to ask how each wine was made and compare notes without shouting over a crowd. Prices start from $15 per person.

That small, seated format is why it turns up on so many celebration lists. Inner City Winemakers suits a birthday with a handful of close friends, an anniversary, a bridal shower or an engagement toast, and hens groups looking for a calmer start to the day.

Good reasons to book a tasting here:

  • A working winery in the city, not a bar pouring someone else's labels
  • Sparkling through to aged fortifieds in a single tasting
  • A shared cheese platter with every booked tasting
  • An intimate table for up to eight guests

Make it the first stop of a hens party, or pair it with dinner for a 40th birthday party.
