Featuring sweeping views of the vineyard set against the backdrop of the Brokenback Mountains, this new kid on the block has already been awarded 4 ½ stars by James Halliday in their first year of operation. And now Latitude 32 Wines invites you to visit their new cellar door.
Emma White was a finance executive before pivoting to her passion for premium wine. She completed her Diploma in Wine and purchased two properties in the Hunter, including a former Tyrells vineyard with 45-year-old vines. Emma’s motto is “fun with serious intent,” and Latitude 32 is the embodiment of that.
“It’s like the front room of someone’s home, with various seating arrangements to suit whatever makes people feel comfortable, including outside seating on the lawn. We used lots of glass in the cellar door so that people could enjoy the view across the vines. There’s a verandah and patio and lawn games,” says Emma.
“Kids of all ages love the giant Connect Four, giant Jenga, Quoits and Ten Pin Bowling. We’re dog-friendly, and we have a fire pit during the winter months. We sell wine by the glass and encourage people to take their glasses and wander around the vineyards, stroll to the dam, and feel that connection to the land. It’s a relaxed atmosphere.”
Visitors to the cellar door can enjoy a delicious selection of light snacks with their wines, including a vegan cheese board, but the real point of difference here is the dumplings and wine pairing with various flavour combinations which
change regularly, including pork and prawn, Schezuen beef, cheese burger and vegetarian options.
The cellar door is open Thursday to Sunday, 10am to 5pm. Book your tastings at www.latitude32wines.com/cellar-door
