The Hunter Valley is Australia's oldest vineyard area with vines first being planted in 1831. Vineyards are concentrated in two areas - Upper and Lower Hunter Valley. The Lower Hunter vineyards occur in the Brokenback Range area around the small town of Cessnock, 165 km north of Sydney and 35 km from the Pacific coast. Pepper Tree's Hunter Valley vineyard is in the Mount View area of the Lower Hunter Valley in the sheltered foothills of the Brokenback Range and covers 38.5 ha of plantings. The Mount View area contains 3 small protected sub-valleys with highly favourable soils influenced by the large proportion of limestone in the underlying rocks.
