Description

Year in year out,D'Arenberg's finest cuvee is their spectacular Dead-Arm Shiraz,made from head-pruned vines more than 100 years old.

The 1998 Dead-Arm Shiraz is outrageously rich,spectacular stuff,the likes of which only Australia seems capable of making.Whiners may complain that it is too big,too rich,too flavorful,and too damn good,but this opaque,purple-colored offering is loaded with blackberry liqueur,smoke,charcoal,pepper,cassis,and licorice.Unctuously textured and full-bodied,but neither heavy nor overbearing,this wine's sweet tannin and low acidity are hidden in the cascade of fruit and glycerin that melt on the palate.This riveting,compelling effort can be drunk now,but promises to age well for two decades or more.
(96 Points).

The 1998 The Dead Arm Shiraz (from a vineyard planted prior to 1890) is outrageously rich, spectacular stuff, the likes of which only Australia seems capable of making. Whiners may complain that it is too big, too rich, too flavourful, and too damn good, but this opaque purple-coloured offering is loaded with blackberry liqueur, smoke, charcoal, pepper, cassis, and liquorice. Unctuously-textured and full-bodied, but neither heavy nor overbearing, the wine's sweet tannin and low acidity are hidden in the cascade of fruit and glycerine that melt on the palate.
