Tasting Notes

The '07 has very fine delineation on the nose with blackberry, wild hedgerow, briary, a touch of black olive all with great composure. The palate is full-bodied, well balanced with a spicy entry, touches of white pepper sprinkled over black cherries, bilberry and cassis fruit, with great focus and delineation on the finish. Superb. Drink 2012-2020

D'Arenberg's flagship is the 2007 The Dead Arm Shiraz. Opaque purple-colored, the nose gives up aromas of meat, game, truffles, chocolate, blueberry, and blackberry. Firm, layered, and complex, this beautifully rendered Shiraz demands 5-7 years of cellaring. It will be at its best from 2015 to 2027.
