On your next visit to the Hunter Valley, devote some time to exploring the subregion of Broke Fordwich, home to a community of wineries with an infectious passion for their little slice of paradise. Margan Wines is one of these stellar wineries, known for its award-winning wines, one-hatted Margan Restaurant and scenic views of the region. There’s a range of experiences for your visit, including monthly Cooking School sessions. Starting with a walk through the on-site kitchen garden, you’ll learn about the nose-to-tail philosophy before donning an apron to start your masterpiece. After all your hard work you get to relax with a three-course lunch, featuring your dishes alongside award-winning wine.

…if you only have one meal in the Hunter make it at Margan. Almost everything is grown onsite… wonderful, contemporary food. It’s “wow” stuff.

The industry and the public are in love with Andrew Margan’s ‘a little bit different’ wines…they are frequent award winners. And the winery restaurant managed by his wife and business partner Lisa is well known for its high standard and multiple industry honours.

“One of the most impressive of the new wave of Hunter producers, Andrew Margan has used his winemaking experience to transform the family’s grape growing business into a flourishing winery where quality is paramount.”
