Sherrah Wines embodies the philosophy that wine's essence is not merely in its flavour profile but in the experience it offers from sip to finish. Established by Alex Sherrah, who transitioned from a background in Organic Chemistry to the art of winemaking, Sherrah Wines reflects a journey marked by passion, instinct, and a deep connection to the McLaren Vale region. Alex's winemaking approach is hands-on, relying on intuition honed over years of experience across the globe, from the Napa Valley to Burgundy and Austria, before settling in McLaren Vale.
At the heart of Sherrah Wines is the belief that wine should seamlessly transition from the initial aroma and taste to a smooth, lingering finish, characterised by balance and devoid of any harshness. This approach is evident in their selection of varietals that thrive in McLaren Vale's unique terroir, showcasing small parcels of fruit sourced from exceptional vineyard sites. The winery's commitment to crafting wines that embody the region's qualities has garnered recognition, including being named "Star Cellar Door" by Gourmet Traveller Wine Magazine.
