Welcome to the McLean’s Farm. I want this to be a simple and effective way to let you know what we do and how to get in contact with us.
My 30 year career in wine (Orlando, Petaluma, St Hallett) has been exciting and varied, and I can confidently say that life without wine would not be.
After some decades of building wineries, creating brands and styles and establishing Australian wine in the international market place, I felt it time to come home to our own land on top of Mengler’s Hill above the Barossa and start from the beginning…again.

We didn’t have 5 generations of old Barossa forefathers who selected the land and planted vines to be ready for us in 100 years time. So we did it ourselves and created a new vineyard of 6144 Grenache, Shiraz, Mataro and Riesling vines.However, like the forefathers we never had, we planted traditional dry grown bush vines in the cooler natural surrounds of the Barossa ranges.

Seek and ye shall find!
Our mission is to create wines that are complete expressions of the vines we planted on the soils we selected to enable us to remain custodians of the future.

McLean’s Farmgate is about the grapes, the soil, the wine in our patch of Barossa. We are worth finding.
