Origin
Dead Arm is named after a vineyard disease that plagues viticulteurs worldwide. Partially fermented in oak, wines from d'Arenberg's various top parcels of Shiraz are then matured in barrel for a total of 24 months, the best selected for inclusion in this premium blend.
Taste
Full-bodied, spicy and rich with cinnamon, chocolate and earthy tones really coming to the fore, perfectly complementing the immense backbone of ripe red fruit.
Enjoy
Impressive now, this wine can only improve over the next 5-7 years, when the ripe fruit will interlace with the tannins and soften.

Press Reviews

  • "Big, brambly and profoundly oaked, this old vine Shiraz from McLaren Vale’s most visible winemaker, Chester Osborn, is sweet and concentrated with power to spare. If you like subtle wines, forget it, but this has masses of personality and the potential to age for 10 years. One of this month’s Five Greatest Wines. Score: 93/100"
