Zwei Kilometer nordwestlich von Clare Township, gegenüber des Hügels, auf dem die Jim Barry Winery liegt, befindet sich der berühmte "The Armagh Shiraz". Die Parzelle besticht durch eine einzigartige Bodenzusammensetzung: eine obere Schicht aus sandigem Lehm, eine Schicht aus steinigem Schwemmland und einem Unterboden aus geflecktem Lehm. Angenehmen Früchte, geschmeidige Texture und reiche Noten sind die Merkmale des Armagh-Stils. Mit der Eiche hinter einer tiefen, intensiven Frucht und feinen, strukturierten Tanninen wird The Armagh für seine Beständigkeit und sein Lagerungspotenzial sehr geschätzt. Seit dem ersten Jahrgang 1985 ist The Armagh ein bemerkenswerter Erfolg.

Wineadvocate

The 2016 The Armagh Shiraz, tasted in a lineup of four vintages (2016 - 2019), has the highest alcohol of the lot (14.2% alcohol) and remains perfectly in balance. These are not the big wines that we may expect them to be. The vintage variation across them is subtle but evident, revealing the beauty of this single vineyard, planted in 1968. This 2016 wine is now starting to settle into its first drinking window and speaks of an array of deli meats, forest berries, exotic spice and even a hint of red curry paste. This has all the complexity you could want, and in terms of tannins: texture, density and rippling muscles. Sensational stuff. Drink it over the next two decades. - EL 09/2022

Vinous

Saturated violet. Powerful, spice-accented black and blue fruits, incense, potpourri and licorice on the hugely perfumed nose. Stains the palate with alluringly sweet, finely detailed blueberry, cassis, mocha, exotic spice and cola flavors; a hint of vanilla appears with air. Blends power and finesse with a sure hand and shows superb balance and zero rough edges. Finishes wonderfully long and juicy, with harmonious tannins and resonating spice and floral notes. - JR 09/2022

Suckling

Wow. This is a bold, brassy shiraz that carries a wealth of very intense aromas of ripe blackberries, dark plums, licorice and sweetly spiced earth. Still so very youthful and primary. The palate is so powerful, so mouth-filling and so, so juicy. This manages to deliver such intensity and composure. Supple, long and deep-set tannins and heroically expressive fruit. Really impressive now, but this will deliver much more over the next two decades. One of the finest releases to date. - JS 06/2020
