McHenry Hohnen

Combining generations of Margaret River winemaking heritage with a progressive approach to organic and biodynamic viticulture, McHenry Hohnen is one of Western Australia's distinctive family-owned wine estates. Based in the celebrated Margaret River region, the winery is renowned for its expressive Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz, produced with a strong emphasis on vineyard individuality and minimal intervention.

The estate was established in 2004 by brothers-in-law David Hohnen and Murray McHenry. David was already a prominent figure in Australian wine, having founded Cape Mentelle in 1970 and later established New Zealand's internationally acclaimed Cloudy Bay winery. Together, the families created McHenry Hohnen to focus on small-production wines from exceptional Margaret River vineyard sites.

Today, the winery remains under family ownership, with Jarrad McHenry playing a leading role in its development. The estate's vineyards include Burnside, Hazel's and Calgardup, each offering distinctive soils, elevations and maritime influences. Organic and biodynamic farming practices are central to the philosophy, encouraging healthy soils, biodiversity and naturally balanced vines.

The portfolio includes the approachable Rocky Road range, alongside premium single-vineyard wines such as Burnside Vineyard Chardonnay, Hazel's Vineyard Chardonnay and Hazel's Vineyard Syrah. The flagship Rolling Stone is a sophisticated Bordeaux-style red blend, while Laterite Hills Chardonnay offers another expression of Margaret River's exceptional white-wine terroir.

Winemaking focuses on indigenous yeasts, gentle extraction and carefully judged oak maturation, allowing the fruit and individual vineyard characteristics to take centre stage. McHenry Hohnen's wines combine concentration, freshness and refined structure, reflecting both the family's pioneering heritage and Margaret River's reputation for world-class wines.
