The red wine Shiraz The Armagh, vintage 2010 from the winery Jim Barry has been rated in 2016 by Ulrich Sautter, Peter Moser, Othmar Kiem with 97 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Syrah from the region Clare Valley in Australia.
Dark ruby garnet with a black core, purple reflections and subtle rim brightening. The nose is ethereal, with underlying black fruit - cassis and blackberry jam in particular - as well as pleasant nuances of maquis and a southern European savouriness. There's a chocolaty touch also to the multi-faceted bouquet. On the palate it's juicy and round - almost Baroque in texture, such is the core of ripe cherry-led fruit and silky tannins. There's still an animating freshness and a mineral touch, which alongside a touch of orange on the finish keeps thing in line. Long lasting, with a promising future.
