Jim Barry Watervale Shiraz 750ml
Spiced blue and black fruits leading the nose, intertwined with high class oak. The wine is youthful and vibrant with hints of black pepper, black plum, and a spicy lift. On entry, the palate is all blue and black fruits with integrated oak, then moves into a bunch like spice, married with violets and black pepper, finishing back in the blue compote spectrum. A layered and detailed for those on the lookout. Delicious!

Wine has been flowing in the Clare Valley since 1851 and is an integral part of the culture. A small area, accounting for less than 1.5% of Australia’s total wine production, it is one of Australia’s most prestigious premium wine regions, most famous for its Riesling and Shiraz. With its beautiful rolling hills, ideal winter rainfall, and Mediterranean climate, the Clare Valley carries a unique history and winemaking heritage.
The tiny village of Watervale (population 246), nestled at the southern end of the Clare Valley, is best known for its world-class Riesling, but it also produces exceptional shiraz.
Our Watervale Shiraz is sourced from our estate vineyards in and around the village, where the cool nights and ancient soils contribute to a wine of lifted aromatics, fine tannins, and vibrant fruit.
