Your day begins with a scenic coastal drive south of Adelaide, showcasing the stunning beaches of the Fleurieu Peninsula — a favourite highlight for many guests and the perfect introduction to this world-class wine region.
While McLaren Vale is famous for its rich Shiraz, you’ll also discover a diverse range of varietals including Grenache, Cabernet Sauvignon, Fiano, Vermentino, Tempranillo, and Sangiovese. Many wineries embrace organic and biodynamic practices, adding authenticity to every glass.
Our first winery visit is Maxwell Wines, one of McLaren Vale’s most iconic family-owned producers. Here you’ll enjoy a guided wine tasting featuring their renowned reds, with the opportunity to also sample their unique honey mead, made on site and loved by visitors looking to try something a little different.
Next, we visit Haselgrove Wines, a boutique cellar door known for its innovative style and premium small-batch wines, offering a wonderful contrast in flavour and winemaking approach.
Lunch is at Richard Hamilton Wines, where you’ll relax over a regional platter lunch showcasing local produce, paired with a wine tasting overlooking the vineyards.
