The 2021 Jim Barry The McRae Wood Shiraz Half Bottle (375ml) is a powerful yet polished Clare Valley Shiraz from South Australia, produced from selected low-yielding vineyards across the Barry family's Clare Valley holdings. The McRae Wood story dates back to 1964, when Jim and Nancy Barry purchased 28 hectares from their friend and neighbour Duncan McRae Wood and planted Shiraz, establishing an important part of the family's viticultural history. The McRae Wood label was subsequently created in 1992 as a premium expression of Clare Valley Shiraz, sitting beneath the iconic The Armagh while offering the concentration, structure and longevity for which Jim Barry has become renowned. The 2021 is presented here in the particularly convenient 375ml half-bottle format, ideal for enjoying a mature-style Australian Shiraz without opening a full bottle.
