Broke Estate

When the Ryan Family established the Australian wine title Broke Estate on Monkey Place Creek in 1987 they became members of a long line of pioneers in the Broke Fordwich sub-region of the Hunter Valley.

They have 55 acres of soil planted to Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Shiraz fruit, released under two Australian labels: Broke Estate and Ryan.

Broke Estate wines are traditional, mature Hunter classics, while the Ryan wines are of the more contemporary class and are still full of flavour, but are for drinking now.
