Just 40 minutes south of Adelaide, McLaren Vale boasts a spectacular mix of the old and the new set in a lush coastal location. Whether it is the wine styles, the vineyards or the cellar doors, you will find McLaren Vales blend of tradition and innovation to be unforgettable.


SCENERY
Set along the Fleurieu coastline, McLaren Vale offers lush rolling vines and hill top views over the valley and to the sea. Many wineries are optimally sited to offer spectacular vistas, with picnic areas and benches for all to enjoy.


WINE
These days McLaren Vale is as much known for its newer wine styles such as Sangiovese and Barbera as it is for the more traditional Shiraz, Grenache and Cabernet Sauvignon. Shiraz still accounts for 50% of the crush and for good reason – any fan of big dry reds will love the world class Shiraz coming out of this region.


FOOD
Our trail makes the most of McLaren Vales rich and varied food offerings, and there are options to suit every taste and budget. Whether it is a grazing platter of local produce, fine dining, or one of the numerous cafes and bakeries in the township, we have got you covered. Alternatively bring a picnic and perch on the hilltop at Kay Brothers enjoying serenity and stunning views.


FREEDOM
We are proud to give you McLaren Vale as though you were driving yourself. Join us in the city or within the region and hop on or off along our trail as you please. Having too good a time at a particular cellar door, or enjoying lunch a little too much? Stay on and catch a later bus! With a bit of planning (and one of our handy Info packs!) you truly can Tour Your Way.

SCENERY
The character of the hills depends on the time of year you visit – be it the mists of winter, the red and gold leaves of autumn, or the clear bright sunshine of the warmer months. This trail is all about winding country roads, panoramic vistas of vines and orchards, and more historic sites than you can waggle a wine glass at.


WINE
The cooler climes make for some outstanding wines. From Shaw and Smiths Australias Best Shiraz award at the London International Wine Challenge, to the iconic and eminently drinkable Sparkling Rosé from Bird in Hand, on this day you will taste some of Australias most memorable wines.


FOOD
From Hahndorfs array of authentic German cuisine, pubs and cafes, to the fine dining at The Lane vineyard, or the cheesemongers and chocolate factory at Woodside, our trail makes the most of the regions delectable offerings. Alternatively bring a picnic and recline on the lawn at Shaw and Smith overlooking views of lake, hills and vines.
