Perhaps
one of South Australia's best kept secrets is the picturesque
McLaren Vale where vineyards, almond orchards and olive groves all
grow within sight of the sea. The region is known for its wonderful
Shiraz and Grenache which are grown in many family owned boutique
wineries where you can visit and taste their wines. As well as the
wine this wonderful Mediterranean climate has encouraged the
development of almond orchards and olive groves.

wineries, such as Wirra Wirra, Fox Creek, Woodstock or Hugh
Hamiltons.
