by Negociants 0 orders

$290.00

Jim Barry The McRae Wood Shiraz 2021 from the Clare Valley is a richly textured and beautifully composed shiraz that reflects both regional character and the estate’s polished winemaking. Aromas of blackberry, plum and dark cherry meet notes of cocoa, clove, cedar and a gentle earthy spice. The palate is full and concentrated, delivering ripe black fruit supported by firm yet velvety tannins and a subtle graphite-like mineral line that adds precision. Oak is seamlessly integrated, enhancing depth without overshadowing freshness. The finish is long, harmonious and confidently structured, offering excellent drinking now with strong cellaring potential for a decade or more.

About Jim Barry Wines

It was Jim Barry’s drive and community spirit that helped shape South Australia’s Clare Valley as a benchmark producer of world class Riesling and cemented its place as one of Australia’s premier wine regions.

Jim Barry Wines has a strong lineage. Jim himself was the first qualified winemaker in the Clare Valley, graduating with the 17th Degree in Oenology from the famous Roseworthy Agricultural College in 1947. Working for 22 years as winemaker at the Clarevale Co-operative, Jim Barry became a pioneer of Australian table wine. He then went on to establish Taylors Wines in 1969 for the Taylor family.

The 2021 The McRae Wood Shiraz is powerful and succulent, with a juicy array of red and purple fruit that is crowded by dusty, spicy tannins. The fruit for this wine is sourced from a number of different vineyards across Clare Valley. 14.3% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Drink 2024-2036.
