Boutique Cellar Doors • Coastal Scenery • Regional Lunch

Enjoy a relaxed small-group wine tour to McLaren Vale, combining boutique cellar doors, local stories and some of South Australia’s most beautiful coastal scenery.

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 enjoyed at Richard Hamilton Wines, where you’ll relax over a regional platter lunch showcasing local produce, paired with a wine tasting overlooking the vineyards. On weekends, lunch may be hosted at Hugo Wines, an equally popular McLaren Vale venue, ensuring a consistently high-quality dining experience. Dietary needs can be accommodated with prior notice.

 In the afternoon, we continue to Shottesbrooke Wines, a respected organic and biodynamic winery, producing elegant wines that beautifully reflect the character of the region — a fitting way to finish the day.
