Brokenwood is a Mattinson Ten Star Winery.
Only the best of Australia’s best are ranked as a Mattinson Ten Star Winery.

Given that the Brokenwood winery has been a key member of the Australian wine community for nearly 55 years now, it could be excused for resting on the laurels of its high reputation. The truth, though, is the opposite; Brokenwood remains steadfastly restless, in the best of ways, its thirst for ultimate quality as parched as ever. As a result, the wines of Brokenwood – an iconic Hunter Valley producer – have in a general sense never been in better form. This form is built on numerous annual examples of chardonnay, semillon and shiraz – grown principally in the Hunter Valley, McLaren Vale and Beechworth. Brokenwood is not just an established name; its wine remain benchmark.
