The company's most famous wine is the single-vineyard Armagh Shiraz which regularly scores highly with critics. The winery was established in 1959 when Jim and his wife Nancy purchased their first property and vineyards on the outskirts of the Clare Valley. Today the estate owns vineyards in the Clare Valley and Coonawarra, and is well regarded among critics and consumers alike. After purchasing their first vineyards in 1959, the Barrys continued to buy plots throughout the Clare Valley, and today have three vineyards in the region: Armagh, Florita and Lodge Hill. The Armagh vineyard has Shiraz planted on original rootstocks in sandy soils with a high content of clay. The Florita vineyard, planted to Riesling, has some of the oldest vines in Watervale while the Lodge Hill vineyard has both Shiraz and Riesling in two separate plots. The Old Cricket Vineyard in Coonawarra is planted to Cabernet Sauvignon, and as may be inferred from its name, is planted on an old cricket ground. The pitch remains in the middle of the vineyard, and many of the Jim Barry wines have names associated with the game.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-01-03T10:53:46-05:00","created_at":"2022-12-30T03:41:39-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Australia","nini3012","Other_Wine","Producer_Jim Barry","Region_South Australia","Source_Bestofwines1222","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Syrah"],"price":39899,"price_min":39899,"price_max":39899,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42654596104330,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2016 | Jim Barry | Shiraz The Armagh","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":39899,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/20_536a471a-9cb1-46e0-9c24-e3edcd288a05.png?v=1672389744"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/20_536a471a-9cb1-46e0-9c24-e3edcd288a05.png?v=1672389744","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2016 | Jim Barry | Shiraz The Armagh at CaskCartel.com","id":23871194038410,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.637,"height":554,"width":353,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/20_536a471a-9cb1-46e0-9c24-e3edcd288a05.png?v=1672389744"},"aspect_ratio":0.637,"height":554,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/20_536a471a-9cb1-46e0-9c24-e3edcd288a05.png?v=1672389744","width":353}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2016 | Jim Barry | Shiraz The Armagh\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a bold, brassy shiraz that carries a wealth of very intense aromas of ripe blackberries, dark plums, licorice and sweetly spiced earth.
