Thomas Allen Wines

The beautiful Moon Mountain Vineyard on Broke Road, Pokolbin, with its panoramic views and rich winemaking heritage, is an iconic location on the Hunter Valley map and home to Thomas Allen Wines since 2009.

Producing early ripening, high quality, flavour intense fruit in very limited quantities, Moon Mountain Vineyard, planted back in 1969, is used in the Mango Tree Chardonnay, The Doctor Cabernet Sauvignon, Old School Shiraz Cabernet and Alasdair Shiraz.

One of few producers that source their Hunter Valley Shiraz from partially ‘dry-farmed’ (non-irrigated) vineyards, all the vines on the Moon Mountain Vineyard are over 40 years old, and consist of Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz and the vineyard’s crop levels range from 500kg/acre to 2T/acre depending on seasonal conditions.

Natural fertilisers are used to improve the organic matter and health of the soil and the vines do not get excess vigour (leaf growth) which helps expose the fruit to the sun to ripen it and expose it to the breeze to keep it dry and reduce disease potential.

Great quality wines are made in the vineyard, so vineyard health and quality is paramount. Thomas Allen Wines do not compromise in the vineyard, with the winemaking or the oak used, choosing traditional cork closures for their wines as they believe it is the best closure for premium quality wines. This has been proven over the centuries by the best Chateau’s in France who continue to use cork as their preferred closure today.
