The wine industry has a reputation for mystique and romanceārolling hills, ancient traditions, and the almost magical transformation of grapes into wine. While these images aren't entirely false, there's another side to winemaking that most producers prefer to keep behind closed doors. From the unglamorous realities of harvest to the modern interventions that shape your favourite bottles, here are the industry secrets that winemakers rarely discuss openly.
At McLaren Vale Cellars, we believe transparency builds trust. While some aspects of winemaking might shatter romantic illusions, understanding the real process helps wine lovers appreciate the skill, science, and dedication required to create exceptional wine.
