Thomas Wines is one of the region’s most renowned winemakers, nationally and internationally acclaimed for exceptional, single vineyard Hunter Valley wines. Thomas Wines is led by Andrew Thomas, who just completed his fortieth Hunter Valley vintage, alongside his assistant winemaker and eldest son, Dan Thomas.

Specialising in Semillon and Shiraz, Thomas wines have 6.1 hectares of vines at the iconic Braemore vineyard (planted 1969), producing exquisite Semillon of purity and precision. Many wines in the Thomas Wines portfolio have become modern benchmarks for the Hunter Valley.

Andrew Thomas believes that ninety percent of wine quality lies in the vineyard and keeps the process simple to preserve that exact quality from grape to glass. Thomas Wines focuses on the strengths of the Hunter Valley, truly expressing its beauty through wines with deep embodiments of the region’s natural elements. Whether it’s a medium-bodied Shiraz or a cellar reserve Semillon, the wines from this celebrated producer reliably deliver an extraordinary sensory experience that has earned them a well-deserved reputation.

Recently crowned as Hunter Valley Cellar Door of the Year, Thomas Wines offers three core tasting experiences – Discovery, Explorer and Provenance. Discovery is the introduction to Thomas Wines: an approachable, village-level tasting that showcases the breadth of the range and provides an ideal entry point for those seeking a relaxed yet insightful Hunter Valley wine experience. Explorer takes guests deeper into the philosophy of Thomas Wines, focusing on our acclaimed single-vineyard Semillon and Shiraz wines. Much like a premier cru collection, it highlights the individuality of site, season and winemaking, offering a more detailed exploration of the vineyards that have defined the Thomas Wines story. At the pinnacle sits Provenance, our grand cru experience. Curated by Andrew Thomas himself, Provenance is a showcase of the winery’s flagship vineyards and most sought-after wines, pairing current releases with limited museum releases that have been carefully cellared and matured to reveal the extraordinary ageing potential of Hunter Valley Semillon and Shiraz.

Thomas Wines has received significant acclaim over the years, including Hunter Valley Winemaker of the Year awards in 2023, 2014, and 2008. Furthermore, it has been a Halliday Wine Companion 5 Red Star Winery for over a decade. Thomas Wines is a must visit destination to delve into the true taste of Hunter Valley’s finest wines.
