Jim Barry Wines Watervale Single Vineyard Clare Valley Shiraz 2020
Jim Barry Wines Watervale Single Vineyard Clare Valley Shiraz 2020 – Premium Australian Red Wine
Product Description
The Jim Barry Wines Watervale Single Vineyard Clare Valley Shiraz 2020 is an exceptional representation of the region’s renowned Shiraz, offering a balanced and intense flavour profile that is sure to captivate wine enthusiasts. Sourced from the pristine Clare Valley in Australia, this 100% Shiraz wine showcases the perfect harmony of dark berry compote, fresh blackberries, and a touch of bramble.
In the 2020 vintage, the cool conditions following véraison (the onset of ripening) provided an ideal climate for grape cultivation, allowing the fruit to ripen slowly and develop remarkable intensity. The wine is characterized by its juicy entry, with bright fruit flavours leading into a rich, rounded palate. Notes of spice and smooth, velvety tannins complement the dark, brooding fruit character, delivering an unforgettable tasting experience. With a natural acidity and balance that is perfect for food pairings, this Shiraz is an excellent choice for any special occasion or as a treat to enjoy with friends.

Winery | This single-vineyard wine is sourced from the Florita vineyard in Watervale. The Shiraz block is planted on a gentle northwest-facing slope, where the soil is composed of a thin layer of loam over limestone. The vines are trained on a single cordon with a rod and spur to promote even canopy growth along the cordon, provide optimal shade, avoid fruit crowding, and reduce disease. The Clare Valley climate has a high diurnal temperature difference, which produces an elegant Shiraz. |
