McLaren Vale is half an hour south of Adelaide, between the southern
Adelaide hills and the sea. The area ’s hot summer growing season is
tempered by cool afternoon sea breezes. The region is known for ‘old
fashioned ’full-bodied reds, which have as much to do with a mild, temperate
climate and complex soils as with the winemaking technique. The region ’s
white wines also have a certain full-flavoured intensity about them. The
region is best known for Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and,
more recently, Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc. Its proximity to
Adelaide, pleasant sea views and rustic small wineries have made McLaren Vale a thriving tourist centre, spawning many superb, character-filled
restaurants and bed and breakfasts.

Listening to our clients is extremely important to us as we strive to ensure that any experience is designed around their requirements rather than simply offering a set tour program that may not cover all their desired topics of interest. For this reason, although we offer a series of tour modules, we are happy to work with clients in developing alternative/additional options suited to their needs.
