Jim Barry
Jim Barry Wines, a name synonymous with excellence in the Australian wine industry, is deeply rooted in the Clare Valley and Coonawarra regions. With a philosophy centred on vineyard ownership, the Barry family ensures that the quality of their wines begins in the vineyard. By meticulously managing 17 vineyards in the Clare Valley and two in the Coonawarra, they produce grapes of exceptional quality, leading to wines of unparalleled flavour and character.
The Armagh Vineyard, known for its Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Malbec, yields small-berried, intensely flavoured grapes. Meanwhile, the Florita Vineyard is famed for its Riesling, offering a blend of historical significance and rich, concentrated flavours. The Lodge Hill Vineyard's unique soil profiles provide the ideal environment for low-yielding vines, producing wines with intense flavours and fine structure. Additionally, the Old Penola Cricket Ground Vineyard in Coonawarra contributes to their lineup with its Terra Rossa soil, perfect for crafting premium Cabernet Sauvignon.
These vineyards form the foundation of Jim Barry Wines, where each bottle reflects the dedication to quality and tradition that defines the Barry familyβs winemaking legacy.
