McLaren Vale
McLaren Vale offers exceptional wines, regional produce and beautiful scenery nestled between the Mount Lofty Ranges and beaches of Gulf St Vincent. Best known for its wineries and welcoming cellar doors, McLaren Vale also produces fruits and is an extensive almond growing region. Little wonder that it has an abundance of cafes and restaurants whose chefs happily showcase local produce.
The McLaren Vale region is dotted by more than 50 wineries, most of which are small to medium-size boutique operations but also including such major Australian players as the BRL Hardy group and Rosemount. About 270 independent grape growers can also be found here.
With dozens of cellar doors, you'll be spoilt for choice in McLaren Vale. Among the best are Coriole Winery, d'Arenberg Vineyard and Winery and Wirra Wirra Vineyards and Cellars.
