A good place to start your visit is the McLaren Vale Information Centre. You'll find a cellar door featuring local wines, a cafe offering delicious treats, and a playground. There's also an ever-changing exhibition of local artists, as well as a market where you can purchase handmade crafts. This is a great stop if you have young children with some energy to expend.
Taste some of the fine local produce at one of the many restaurants in McLaren Vale. Some of the most popular restaurants in the area include Star of Greece, Blessed Cheese, and The Almond Train. You can purchase products to take home with you from many of these cafes and restaurants. If you want to have a more in-depth experience of the region's cuisine, attend a cooking class at Chapel Hill Winery under the guidance of their esteemed kitchen staff.
