d'Arenberg The Dead Arm Shiraz 2019

Tasting Notes

Bright fruit characters are evident immediately from the first engagement. On the nose, savoury spicy plum and dried herb and sage combination burst open. And then a palate that is deeply intense and opulently smooth starts to reveal its best qualities. Has a chalky dusty thread with a little crushed rock influence. It's quite dry on the finish after the richness of the middle palate. Drink by: 2024-2042. Score - 95. (Ray Jordan, winepilot.com, Sept. 2024)
