Fox Creek Wines is an iconic, award winning winery located in McLaren Vale, South Australia. With a rich heritage in crafting fine regional wines since 1994, Fox Creek Wines portfolio ranges from Sparkling white through to Shiraz and includes exciting Italian varietals. Our commitment is to cultivate a unique wine brand that embodies the qualities of craftsmanship, innovation, consistency and authenticity. We invite you to visit our historic 19th century stone Cellar Door cottage, conveniently located 45 kilometres south of Adelaide, between the villages of McLaren Vale and Willunga on the Fleurieu Peninsula. The expansive grassed areas surrounded by flower beds, gum trees and of course vineyards, allow visitors to find their own tranquil spot from which to enjoy a view of the cottage, the Fox Creek winery and our iconic wine region, McLaren Vale.
Fox Creek Winery is my favorite winery in McLaren Vale. Their Vixen Sparkling Shiraz and other wines are excellent and I always use them for functions and entertaining.

We had our wedding at Ivybrook Farm in November 2020 and absolutely love the winery and the outstanding staff. From the moment we discovered Ivybrook about 1.5 years prior to our wedding, it has been our favourite place to visit. The wine is fantastic and the beautiful scenery makes an ideal location for a wedding. The staff are all so friendly and accommodating and really helped to make our day so special, especially as we had to put the wedding back by a week due to covid. We had a table outside for the reception and all the guests loved being outside, especially when kangaroos appeared in the field next door! We will be back time and time again and will always have special memories.

Nestled in the foothills of Adelaide with views over the city, Magill Estate is one of the worlds few urban single vineyards only 15 minutes drive from Adelaide city. The Cellar Door offers a selection of wine tastings daily. Tailored tastings are available on request and a choice of experiences are on offer. Experiences feature the recently re-developed Drives (tunnels) that showcase the original resting spot of Max Schubert's 'hidden' Grange.
Had a great wine tasting, with lovely service from the attentive staff. The lady behind the counter shared a lot of knowledge and showed us great service. We felt very well taken care of. And of course, great wine.

The idea to build the d'Arenberg Cube came to Chief Winemaker Chester Osborn in 2003. Inspired by the complexities and puzzles of winemaking, Chester created the idea of a cube-shaped building. Each of the five levels have been carefully designed to entice and excite the senses, including features such as a wine inhalation room, a virtual fermenter, a 360degree video room, and many other tactile experiences. Visitors are encouraged to explore the Alternate Realities Museum, located on the ground floor, and view the many art installations on display. The tasting room is located on the top floor, and is open 7 days a week 10am - 5pm.
We were a little concerned that this place had been too hyped up and overrated but it was actually an amazing experience even for me who doesn't actually enjoy wine all that much. The cube is impressive and it's worth just going to get a photo. But I can also highly recommend the tastings on the top floor. Our wine guy James was super friendly, really attentive and engaging, and made it feel like quiet a personal experience even when there were so many people around in the tasting room. I recommend getting there first thing in the morning otherwise it gets super busy. When we left there were people having to line up to get in. And I wouldn't bother with the gallery. Just pay the $15 for the rest of the experience and it should be a pretty enjoyable time!

Coriole Vineyards was founded by Hugh and Molly Lloyd in 1967. Coriole is still owned by the Lloyds and is now managed by second and third-generation family members. The estate is situated in the undulating hills of the densely planted McLaren Vale region just within sight of the sea and less than an hour from Adelaide. The original farmhouses were built in 1860 and are now the epicentre of the garden and cellar door at the winery. The original vineyards were planted in 1919. Shiraz is the great tradition of McLaren Vale going back over 150 years, and is the major variety planted on the estate. Coriole has been an Australian pioneer of Sangiovese and Italian varieties since 1985.

Hugh Hamilton Wines is a 'must see' winery in McLaren Vale. Set on a ridge line it provides nearly 360 degree 'stunning' views of the McLaren Vale wine region. The wines are all estate grown and include the main stream varietals such as Shiraz, Grenache, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot including some of the more rare and unusual varieties including Sangiovese, Tempranillo and Saperavi. All wines have fun names and include The Trickster, The Scallywag, The Rascal, The Villain, The Ratbag, The Mongrel, The Scoundrel, The Floozie, The Oddball, and The Drama Queen. Visitors from overseas are all welcome.
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Hugh Hamilton Wines today. Had an informative and enjoyable tasting session. This place obviously enjoys making wine and it’s such a great outlook over the vineyard.
