South Australia > Clare Valley
 
Clare Valley is a place where 'wine and food' means people. It's a region with a warm rustic flavour - and a world-beating wine-list. Writer James Halliday compares it to Tuscany (he says it makes him feel he 'belongs somehow') and wine experts regularly make the pilgrimage after vintage in March or April. But you don't need to be a connoisseur to appreciate the wine-lands.
