Only an hours drive out of Adelaide, McLaren Vale is the birthplace of the South Australian wine industry. And just like the Barossa Valley nearby, it’s known for its big, bold, luscious reds. Nestled between the Mount Lofty Ranges and the windswept coast, this powerhouse region is home to more than 80 vineyards and cellar doors growing warm-climate vines. Think Tempranillo, Grenache, Sangiovese and Barbera. But really, it’s best known for its Shiraz.
