The grapes used for Sarah’s Creek Shiraz are from these vineyards that display greater spice notes than what we typically get in the Robertson region. This Shiraz has aromas of dark cherry and sweet violet on the nose, with additional notes of pepper. The palate is soft and juicy, with freshness and a long finish.
