Cockfighters Ghost Wines — Attraction in Pokolbin

We came in a party of 3 and was served by this amazing woman named, Tress. She was holding down a full room (there were 4 tables for tasting) all by herself and still manage to give each of the group (including us) her 100%. Granted we had to wait a while before being served which was ok since we weren’t in a hurry and was enjoying the beautiful day. I am especially impressed by her ability to give us the perfect balance between giving us enough time to taste and enjoy our selected wines, and coming over to talk to us and giving us a rundown of the wines we were tasting. I would give more than 5 stars if I could for the service she provided (even helped me to look up for freight charges for my country 😂). We walked away with a few bottles and thoroughly happy. Would definitely be back if I’m ever back in the area....

Thank you Phil for proving customer service is not just an art of the past but exists in abundance at your...

On a couples weekend to the Hunter, Cockfigher's Ghost was first on our list. Little did we know that it would surpass our expectations of what a wine tasting experience could be. Paddy took us personally through our Premiere wine tasting list and customised it based on our preferences and how we were liking the wines we tasted. He showed us great hospitality and knowledge set looking over the vineyards in a beautiful cellar door. What was above and beyond for me was when I requested to try an off list wine and without hesitation he brought out a bottle. Beautiful wines and best experience compared to every other cellar...
