Jim Barry The Armagh Shiraz 2018
Jim Barry The Armagh Shiraz 2018
This wine exudes a captivating smokiness and sultriness, complemented by a rich interplay of toasted oak, charcuterie, and hints of iodine. Despite its full-bodied nature and luscious, creamy tannins, it maintains a delicate balance that underscores its gravitas. The fruit has seamlessly absorbed the oak, resulting in a harmonious restructuring of its flavor profile.
