The fruit for this comes from the famed Armagh vineyard. This is a big, strong Shiraz – almost 'old school'. Dark fruit is melding into the oak with flavours showing some more mellow spice cupboard, earthy savouriness. A special wine and superb value.

Winery notes (2020 Vintage)
"The McRae Wood Shiraz was first developed in 1992 in response to growing demand for the renowned 'The Armagh' Shiraz, which could only ever be made in limited quantities. The McRae Wood draws on the best sections of low-yielding Shiraz from the family's mosaic of vineyards across the Clare Valley.

Dark fruited and broody nose, with plum and blackberry aromas, sweet earth, and hawthorn, all framed by integrated oak spice and nuances of fresh soft liquorice. With an effortless approach and line, sinewy tannins greet the palate and flow all the way through to the finish. Up front the wine has all the hallmarks of the McRae Wood profile, followed by a wave of elegance, florals and spice, and a classic brooding finish."

92/100 James Halliday's Wine Companion (2020 Vintage)
"It’s a flavoursome, fuller-figured red with clove and cinnamon wood a feature over red plum, raspberry coulis and figgy, dried fruit characters. Thick in the palate with ribs of firm, gravelly tannin, the wine finishes with decent length, albeit a bit woody/dusty over finesse and freshness. For those seeking a liberally seasoned, bolder red, this works."

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.

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 family’s winemaking legacy.
