McLaren Vale South lays peacefully only 40 minutes south of Adelaide and commands a stunning display of new and old across its verdant coastal lands. This blend of innovation and tradition extends to the many cellar doors, vineyards, and wine styles, and ensures you will find McLaren Vale South to be unforgettable.

Scenery

Resting along the rugged coastline of the Fleurieu Peninsula, the hilltop views of McLaren Vale South extend over the valley and right to sea. Verdant, rolling vines fill the landscape as you travel to wineries which offer spectacular vistas and even better wines.

Wine

Continuing to blend old and new, McLaren Vale South is renowned as much for its traditional wines as it is for its newer styles. With newer styles like Sangiovese and Barbera nestled amongst the more traditional Shiraz, Grenache, and Cabernet Sauvignon, there is sure to be something for everyone in the beautiful McLaren Vale South.

Food

McLaren Vale South boasts a variety of fine and varied food options to satisfy every taste and budget. You can find gorgeous and tasty platters of local produce or fine dining or make a stop at any one of the many bakeries or cafes in the McLaren Vale Township. You can even pack a picnic and sit on the hilltop at Kay Brothers and soak in the serenity.
