Back in November we were able to welcome Moira Were, Mayor of the City of Onkaparinga, to the podcast. Moira joins us to talk about her journey into local leadership, the issues that matter most to our community, and what drives her passion for making Onkaparinga a great place to live.

Tales from the Vale welcomes a gentleman who is incredibly well known. A true Mclaren vale or Willunga local depending on whom you speak with. He is a viticulturist and has a great wine making enterprise. In Leigh Gilligan words he is, "an all round great bloke!" Enjoy our chat with David Paxton.

On this episode we sat down with one of Leigh's old neighbours, local businessman and all round nice guy, Tim Cawte. We hope you enjoy this episode of Tale's from the Vale.

On this episode we sat down with the new proprietor of McLaren Vale's legendary Ellis Butchers, Rihann Koekemoer. Strap in for an international tale of chance, risk, thoughtful insight and South African passion.

Merry Christmas to all. As a little added bonus for the year we thought it would be great for you to learn a little more about one of the hosts of Tales from the Vale, Leigh Gilligan. We hope you can find some time over the holidays to sit back, pour a glass and enjoy this recording of Tales from the Vale. Have a great Christmas and a Happy New year. See you in 2025 with many more exciting instalments of Tales from the Vale.

In this episode of Tales from the Vale we chat with the fascinating & energetic, Jock Harvey. To most locals of the area and anyone in the wine industry, Jock needs no introduction. We hope you enjoy this fascinating podcast recorded live from the Willunga Farmers Market.

This is the first part of a 2 part episode recorded live from the Willunga Farmers Market where we spent some time talking to Megan Sherry from the wonderful Harvest the Fleurieu situated out of Mount Compass.

This episode we sat down with celebrated McLaren Vale winemaker Steve Pannell. We're sure you'll enjoy this wonderful conversation covering his love of red tape, red wine, alternate varieties, vineyards, surfing and family.
