Brokenwood Wines, located in Australia’s sunny Hunter Valley, about 2 hours north of Sydney, has a truly interesting history. It was founded by three Sydney-based solicitors who paid a then record price of $970 per acre for a 10-acre piece of land in Brokenback Ranges, a block which was originally planned to be turned into a cricket ground. The land was planted then with Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz, but since then it has produced a wide array of premium quality wines, sourced from ‘all the right regions, for all the right reasons’, from the Graveyard Shiraz to the Cricket Pitch Sauvignon Blanc Semillon and Cricket Pitch Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot.
