dARENBERG THE DEAD ARM SHIRAZ 2019

d'Arenberg The Dead Arm Shiraz 2019 is a flagship McLaren Vale wine, massively deep in color and brimming with intensity. The nose opens with bright black cherry, plum, blackberry, mocha, and Kalamata olive, alongside hints of fennel, roasted beetroot, and spice. The palate is powerful and concentrated, packed with dense layers of black fruit, licorice, dark chocolate, smoked meats, and earthy notes. Tannins are grippy and flinty, combining structure with creamy opulence, while a rich yet balanced acidity drives a long, persistent finish. This wine is built for decades of cellaring; it’s deeply complex, full-bodied, and opulently smooth.
