Lot 575 Details
D'ARENBERG THE DEAD ARM SHIRAZ 2000

McLaren Vale, Australia.
3 x scuffed labels

This estate’s most renowned offering is their old vine (90+ years) Shiraz called The Dead Arm. The unfined/unfiltered 2000 The Dead Arm Shiraz is one of South Australia’s finest wines of the vintage. A perfume of grilled steak intermixed with blackberries, new saddle leather, earth, pepper, and melted licorice rises from this awesome red. With great power, richness, and no hard edges, it is still young and primary, but should hit its peak in 3-7 years, and last for two decades or more. August 2003 WA 94

5 mags.    per lot $700 - $900
