McKellar Ridge Estate is a boutique winery and vineyard at Murrumbateman in the Canberra District, making award-winning, hand-crafted wines with the region's cool-climate hallmarks of fresh fruit, spice and crisp acidity. It was established in 2005 by Dr Brian Johnston and his wife Janet Johnson, a Canberra watercolour artist, and quickly won local and national awards.
It is now owned and made by husband and wife John and Marina Sekoranja. John's calling came while visiting relatives in Slovenia, where his father lamented having had to abandon the family vineyard when World War II broke out; John resolved to carry the tradition on.
The cellar door welcomes visitors to taste the range.
