Meet the Real Hosts of the Hunter Valley Cellar Doors
When it comes to a warm welcome, few cellar door hosts can match Tilly at John Wallace Wines. Officially titled the “Friendly Liaison Officer”, this charming Labrador takes her duties very seriously - from greeting guests with a wagging tail to posing for the perfect photo. Tilly’s friendly presence adds a layer of joy to tastings, proving that wine and wagging tails are a match made in vineyard (and puppy) heaven.
Over at Lottie’s place, things get even sweeter. This spirited pup was such an inspiration that the winery named a wine after her - a delightful sweet white called “Lottie.” Visitors not only get to sample the wine at Stomp! Wines but also meet the playful namesake herself, bouncing between cuddles and naps. It’s a cellar door experience that captures the fun, heart, and personality of Hunter Valley dog friendly wine tours.
Then there’s Stella, the red Kelpie rescue dog of Moorebank Vineyard, whose talents go far beyond wagging tails. Stella helps manage the sheep on the property, bringing true working-dog spirit to the wine country lifestyle. Guests might catch her in action or see her strolling proudly around the cellar door, embodying the authentic country charm that makes these wine tours pawsitively unforgettable.
