Drink

McLaren Vale is one of Australia’s most loved wine regions right on the doorstep of Adelaide. With over 80 cellar doors, you can enjoy a simple tasting through to an immersive food and wine experience, all with the spectacular Fleurieu coastline just ten minutes away.

Whilst you may come for the wine, you will stay for the beer and gin. The region is building a strong reputation for quality craft beer, with labels like Goodiesons, Shifty Lizard, Swell and South Coast Brewing – you may have picked it – there are a few surfers among this lot!

Not only is the region well known for its local brews, but also for the ever-growing selection of spirits distilled right here in the vineyard valleys. Think Settlers Spirits at The d'Arenberg Cube with their Sloe and Pink Gin or The Salopian Inn featuring ‘Up the Garden Path’ using botanicals sourced from their kitchen garden.

Where ever your palate takes you, you are sure to enjoy the best of the McLaren Vale and Fleurieu Coast.
