Jim Barry The Armagh Shiraz 2004 |
| |
|
|
The 2004 Armagh is black-purple in colour. It displays a nose of lifted, aromatic, blueberry/blackberry cassis, cedary oak, spice and complex, underlying savoury Characters.
The palate is huge and dense, with fully integrated oak, yet still featuring complex fruits of plum, blackcurrant, blackberry and black cherry. It shows deep, brooding consistency, with the flavour and texture of chocolate mudcake. This wine is ideal for long term cellaring. We suggest that the wine is allowed to ‘breathe’ a minimum of two hours before being consumed to fully appreciate the distinctive flavours and aromas.
I WOULD HAVE TO SAY THIS IS ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVOURITES TO COLLECT AND HOPE YOU TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SNAP THIS STOCK UP BEFORE IT GOES.
'As ever, very dense purple-red; full-bodied, but nonetheless is disciplined, and holds its line and structure well; blackberry, licorice and dark chocolate with vanilla oak all coalesce; the wine should long outlive the cork (which is of good quality, it must be said). Cork.
