Long weekend plans? We’ve got an idea. 👇
🍷 Guided wine tasting experience
🍽️ Long lunch at The Wood Restaurant
☀️ Wine + cheese on the Terrace
If you’re heading to the @huntervalley these school holidays or over the October long weekend, make sure Brokenwood is on the itinerary.
Book ahead to secure your spot.
Budburst in the vineyard. Tastings at the Cellar Door. Seasonal long lunches at The Wood Restaurant. Award-winning wines. Winemakers hard at work behind the scenes. Events, sunshine, and golden sunsets worth staying for 🌿🍷☀️
That’s spring at Brokenwood.
If you’ve been thinking about a @huntervalley getaway, there’s no better time to visit.

Sunset in the vines. If the Hunter Valley had a signature view, this might just be it 😍
Home to some of the region’s most celebrated Semillon, Tallawanta Vineyard puts on a show long before the grapes reach the glass.

📅 Friday, 16 October 2026
⏰ 12:30pm – 4pm
📍 Pilu at Freshwater
See link in bio to book your tickets. We hope to see you there 🥂
It’s actually no secret that The Wood Restaurant is fired by wood, inspired by flavour. 🔥
From the flame to the plate, fire is at the heart of what we do, bringing a little extra char, smoke and seriously good flavour to the table.
Pair it with a glass of Brokenwood and you’ve got lunch in the @huntervalley sorted. 🍷
The vision at Brokenwood has always been simple: ENJOY GREAT WINE and have FUN! 🍷
And honestly? Nothing beats a full Cellar Door of people doing exactly that.
That’s the vision. ❤️

The finest in wine, food and music. What a night. 🎼🍷✨
Saturday night was something truly special in the @huntervalley as we welcomed the @australianworldorchestra to Brokenwood.
From incredible food from The Wood Restaurant and exceptional Brokenwood wine to a spectacular performance from the AWO, it was a celebration of everything that makes an evening unforgettable.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make Brokenwood Presents AWO such a special night. ❤️

Celebrating the release of our 2026 Rosato the best way we know how… with a Rosato Partito! 🍷🌸
It was a stunning Spring Saturday at @peregrinmerewether, spent sipping Rosato, soaking up the sunshine, dancing along to live music from @annaweatherup_music and celebrating our newest vintage with very good company. 🍷🌸
Hosted by our Winemaker @kate_sturgess, it was the perfect way to toast the release of our 2026 Rosato.
Thank you to everyone for celebrating with us!
Want to join us at the next Rosato Partito? There`s still tickets left for OTTO, Sydney on Saturday, 26 September 2026.

After tasting through 52 individual Chardonnay barrels as part of the 2026 Hunter Chardonnay classification, there was plenty to say - but could the team sum up the vintage in just one word?
Stuart: Consistent
Kate: Exciting
Hayden: Complex
Dave: Thought-provoking
Good things are coming from the 2026 vintage. 🥂

Think winter means the vineyard is taking a break? Think again. 🌱
While the vines are dormant, our cover crops are hard at work - protecting the soil, supporting biodiversity and setting the vineyard up for the season ahead.
Hear from our Sustainability Lead, Lorrae, as she explains exactly what we’ve planted in our cover crops in the Graveyard Vineyard this winter.
