SEA & VINES 2019

McLaren Vale's Sea & Vines Festival is back this June long weekend and promises yet again to deliver a fun-filled three days celebrating the very best of South Australia's coastal wine region.

Over the three days, a variety of winery events has been designed to suit locals and visitors of all ages, tastes and experiences. From intimate degustation dinners, tasting with winemakers and chefs, to winery tour adventures, food trucks, live music and fun activities for families.

Whether you just have a day to spare or want to devote your weekend to all things McLaren Vale, it is well worth making the short trip out of Adelaide to enjoy one or many of the events on offer.

Naturally, McLaren Vale's Ultimate Wineries: d'Arenberg, Wirra Wirra and Gemtree Wines will be hosting exciting events and we have all the details...
