Our roots in Oz are strong: Owen McGuigan settled in the Hunter Valley in 1880. His son, Perc, established benchmarks for world-class Australian wines and was named a “Hunter Valley Living Legend.”

Perc’s son Brian took the family blueprint international, before his brother Neil became chief winemaker and CEO. Today, as winemaker and consultant for McGuigan Wines, Neil continues to oversee the winemaking, and aims to work outside the bounds of tradition to take Aussie wine to the next level.
