Tulloch Story

The Tulloch Story began in the Hunter Valley in 1838.

1800’s

The Tulloch Story Begins

The Tulloch story began in 1838 when James Tulloch arrived in Australia from his homeland of Scotland and settled in Camberwell. James' grandson, John Younie (J.Y.) Tulloch owned the Branxton General Store and accepted an unusual settlement of a debt - a 43 acre property in nearby Pokolbin.

1938

The Rise of Tulloch Wines

By the 1920’s J.Y. had established himself as the largest vigneron in the Hunter and began the tradition of quality and excellence that is now synonymous with the Tulloch name. In 1938 the company was named J.Y. Tulloch & Sons Pty. Ltd.

1965

A Period of Change

In 1965 Hector Tulloch passed away and was survived by his wife Eileen and two children, Jay (also John Younie) and Helen. In 1969 the company was sold outside of the family for the first time to Reed Consolidated Publishing and so began an era of ownership from outside of the family, which continued until 2001.

2001

A New Era of Tradition

In 2001 the opportunity arose to buy back the old family company, J.Y. Tulloch & Sons from the large conglomerate, Southcorp Wines. Unable to resist and with interest from long term friends and business associates the new era of J.Y. Tulloch & Sons began. With Jay Tulloch once again at its helm and its commitment to premium Hunter Valley wines renewed, one of the Hunter’s great winemaking names lives on.
