Jim Barry ‘McRae Wood’ Shiraz 2013, Clare Valley

The late Jim Barry is a godfather of Australian wines. His Clare Valley estate is now in the hands of his grandson, Tom, and was named Winery of the Year 2020 by Australia’s leading wine critic, James Halliday. This wine is made partially from grapes declassified from one of Jim Barry’s finest vineyards, The Armagh, where bottles usually fetch £100+. As a result, this has been the choice of some of the most prestigious Michelin-starred restaurants since its first vintage. Expect balanced aromas of black berries and pepper and flavours of dark fruit and savoury spices. Its refined structure and long finish make it an excellent choice for intensely-flavoured lamb shanks, drizzled in jus.
