Welcome to Dalwood Estate 🤍

A place rich in history, set amongst the vines and along the banks of the Hunter River, a space that has quietly held so many stories over the years. Established in 1828, this iconic estate is recognised as one of Australia’s oldest vineyards, now stepping into a beautiful new chapter.

After seasons of stillness, the gates are opening once again… and it feels pretty special to witness it come back to life. Recently renovated, Dalwood Estate has had the most stunning glow-up and for now, it’s still quietly under the radar.

We had the pleasure of capturing this incredible space from above, a glimpse into something truly special, and effortlessly beautiful.

If you’ve been searching for your venue, tomorrow is your chance to experience it all in person… before everyone else does!
