Savannah Estate: Two Doors, One Heart

In the heart of the Hunter Valley, third-generation winemaker Savannah Peterson has crafted a beautiful story that unfolds across two distinctive cellar doors, united by a shared passion. As granddaughter of the legendary Peterson wine family and now manager of the Peterson family portfolio, Savannah brings her own vision to life with uncompromising quality and infectious passion.

The Mount View cellar door is close to Savannah's heart—it's where she made her name, nestled in one of the most picturesque landscapes in the Hunter Valley. This intimate cottage embodies everything that makes wine country special: a romantic country scene where you can relax, enjoy the view and, most importantly, drink wine. Here, they preserve the intimate charm and character that has endeared them to loyal customers and wine club members over the years.

In 2024, Savannah Estate unveiled its second chapter on Broke Road's prestigious 'Golden Mile.' Built by Peter Southwell, the new cellar door reflects Savannah's commitment to sustainability and reverence for history, featuring handmade convict bricks from the Kaluda Estate in Lochinvar that Dad, Colin, had saved, as well as a bar crafted from an old Ironbark tree from the Mount View property. What unites these two venues is more than location—it's philosophy. Savannah's ideology behind her wine brand is combining great food, great company, and great music that harmoniously intertwines with her exquisite wines. The staff aren't just wine connoisseurs, they're great people who contribute to a tight-knit culture of positivity and fun.

"When you become a member of our wineries, you join our family,” says Savannah.

“When you visit our cellar doors, you are welcomed like an old friend and treated to genuine hospitality."

Savannah Estate sources grapes from multiple regions, creating small, select parcels of premium fruit that best reflect their regional character and distinctiveness. From Hunter Valley classics to innovative varietals like Tempranillo and Vermentino, each wine tells a story. Whether you choose Mount View's rustic intimacy or Broke Road's vibrant accessibility, you'll discover why visitors leave as friends at the end of the day. Two doors, one heart—beating with genuine hospitality and exceptional wine.
