McLaren Vale
Strong regional identity on the international stage.
Located just 30 minutes drive south east of Adelaide and parallel to the coast, these rolling hillside vineyards produce some of Australia’s finest Shiraz and Grenache based red wines. Some of the areas historic old wineries were established in the late 1800s and many remain today. With a strong regional identity on the international stage, the wines have a distinctive style and are subtlely achieved from a combination of very warm summers, mild winters and cooling sea breezes. Many of Australia’s most famous and expensive wines have their vineyard origins within this region.
