Jim BarryThe Armagh Shiraz 2007 1.5L
Dry, Full Bodied style of Shiraz
Clare Valley, Australia
About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of ShirazClare Valley, AustraliaThis wine is deep crimson red with purple tints. It shows the hallmarks of low-yielding vines, with intense tightly coiled aromas of cranberry, mulberry, boysenberry and spearmint, with the underlying characters of rosemary, sage, cinnamon, cedar and black pepper. In the mouth this wine really shows its true colours and while it is still very young, the firm tannin structure plays an integral role in the overall picture. Flavours of red currants, black cherries and blueberries are in abundance, with an undercurrent of freshly turned earth and truffles in the background. The length of flavour and power in this wine, whilst still showing finesse and restraint, is what sets it at the zenith of red winemaking at Jim Barry Wines.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Uncertain colour for such a distinguished wine; quickly recovers with its powerful array of black fruits, licorice and oak on the bouquet and full-bodied palate; the vintage, however, robs the wine of its usual great distinction.
