Restaurant

Located within the beautiful sandstone walls of Peterson House, at the "Gateway" to the Hunter Valley Vineyards, Restaurant Cuvee features beautiful exposed aged timber beams and iron work throughout and commands a prominent position with spectacular views overlooking the beautiful vineyards.

In wine we refer to Cuvee as being a blend of different grapes, or grapes from a different vintage.

In food we can also refer to Cuvee as the blend of old with new; sweet with sour; smooth with crisp.

The Restaurant Cuvee menu has been designed by Head Chef Chad Pridue and his team to showcase this cuvee blend, using fresh seasonal produce to bring to you Modern Australian cuisine at its best.

Renowned for its breakfast menu and its ever popular speciality the Bubbly Breakfast, Restaurant Cuvee is the perfect spot to start your day with a superbly cooked breakfast, chocolates and Sparkling Peterson House Wines while soaking in the beautiful view.

Enjoy a quick bite between vineyard tastings or sit back and enjoy catching up with friends over a long lunch.

"You'd be hard-pressed to find a prettier spot for weekend dining. Housed within atmospheric Peterson House, an inviting sandstone homestead with soaring timber ceilings, the aptly named Cuvee draws crowds for sparkling – fuelled breakfasts and leisurely lunches. Outside, the sun drenched deck is the place to be, as views of the cottage gardens and lantern strung trees add to the charm. There's much to like about the menu, too, which spans light snappy salads to steaks with a shiraz reduction. A fabulous duck confit salad, cut by orange, micro cress and red wine vinegar, is the perfect balanch to the rich, flakey meat and gentle acidic bite. Grilled flathead fillets served on a rustic panzanella salad also make fine fare." - 2010 Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Guide
