Jim Barry

"Sometimes it takes longer than a lifetime to do a lifetime's work… it's now up to my children." - Jim Barry 1925 – 2004.

The late Jim Barry was a pioneer of the Australian wine industry.

He was the first qualified winemaker to work in the Clare Valley of South Australia and with his wife, Nancy, built a successful wine business which has produced trophy-winning wines since its establishment in 1959.

Today, the company is headed by Jim’s second son Peter, who took over from his father as Managing Director.
