Jim Barry “The Barry Bros.” Shiraz 2021 – Clare Valley, South Australia
Brace yourself: this is Clare Valley Shiraz with style, vibrant, approachable, and crafted for serious enjoyment. The Barry family—pioneers in Clare Valley—deliver another standout with “The Barry Bros.” Shiraz 2021, a wine that mirrors their deep roots and modern sensibilities.
Expect a multi-layered nose of rich dark berries, plum, blackberry, and cassis, elevated by elegant spice, violet florals, and a pinch of mint chocolate. The palate is full-bodied yet silky smooth, with finely tuned structure and savoury tannins that cradle the fruit, leading to a long, satisfying finish that lingers with spice and ripe berry. At 14% ABV, it's bold without tipping into overkill.
Perfect for slow-roasted lamb, rich pasta, or a hearty beef tagine, it’s also an everyday pleasure bottle that reveals depth sip after sip.
Rich dark fruit, violet spice, and savoury tannins in a full-bodied yet silky 2021 from Jim Barry.
