Our Story
The Legend Of Sarah
At the heart of Sarah’s Creek lies a spirited tale — one of wonder, rebellion, and a deep love for nature. It all began with Sarah, a great aunt from the Malherbe family, who chose not to follow the ordinary path in life — quite literally. Every morning, instead of taking the direct route to school, young Sarah would wander along her favourite creek. This was no mere shortcut — it was her sanctuary, her playground, and her muse. With every step, she immersed herself in the untamed beauty of the landscape: the shimmer of water catching the morning light, the hum of insects in the air, and the dance of dragonflies and butterflies above the stream. She walked slowly, deliberately — often at the cost of punctuality — because for Sarah, those moments in nature were far more enriching than anything the classroom could offer. She wasn’t just walking to school; she was collecting stories, colours, sounds, and sensations.
Today, Sarah’s legacy lives on in every bottle of our wine. Like her, our wines take the scenic route — unhurried, soulful, and deeply connected to the land. They mature with grace, basking in the rhythm of the natural world, developing rich, indulgent flavours that can only come from a life lived off the beaten path. Sarah’s Creek isn’t just a name. It’s a tribute to the free spirit in all of us — the part that dares to take the longer way, just to soak in the beauty along the journey.
