Summary
Weather for Broke

Just 20 minutes from Singleton and 10 minutes from Pokolbin, Broke and nearby Fordwich are located in the southwest corner of the mid Hunter Valley. Sitting between Pokolbin and Wollombi, Broke is a very historical town, once being a major centre in the Hunter Valley involved in the development and heritage of NSW.

Today the Broke Fordwich region is still making history. In 1994 it was the first area formally recognised as a separate viticultural sub-region of the Hunter Valley. While, historically, it is one of the oldest wine growing areas in Australia.

Broke Fordwich is unlike other areas close by as it is remaining free of large scale development but still offering first class B&B and self catering accommodation, restaurants and cafes. The enormous Brokenback Range Yellow Rock escarpment stands above the town and provides fantastic bush walking opportunities.

Many viticultural experts tip the area to be the 'next big thing', particularly with the success of verdelho and merlot varieties in the Broke area. There are around 50 individual vineyards as well as vines managed by major wine producers.
