Driving through the McLaren Vale in autumn brings with it a flavour of romance. Rows of vineyards contour the hills and drip with heavy clusters of deep purple fruits. Sweeping views of ancient eucalypt are framed by the curling tendrils of new vine and the serrated edges of paper thin leaves hiding the shiraz of tomorrow. Olive greens give way to the flames of red and gold before the melancholia of winter settles in. The fertile earth supports both grape and olive, the dry crisp air breathing life and sustenance into a cultivated land.
