  • 2018 The Dead Arm Shiraz, d'Arenberg, McLaren Vale

    En af d'Arenbergs ikonvine og et flagskib for huset. Vinen er kendt for sin enorme frugtintensitet og kompleksitet uden den plumpe overvægter-fornemmelse, man kan være ude for i andre stærke Shirazvine fra Australien. Blåbær, blomme, lakrids, krydderurter, et strejf af jordbund og fornemmelse af knuste sten i eftersmagen. Faste, finkornede tanniner og spillende frugtsyre. Som helt ung er karaffel obligatorisk!

    JamesSuckling

    Quite expressive and exotic, with red plums, blackberries and iodine, as well as dried herbs and nori, quite fragrant spices and currants. The palate has a sleek, dense and long feel, with impressive fruit intensity, delivered in such contained and impressively composed style. This has such length and intensity with a silky texture. Old vines underpin the style here. Drink over the next decade or more.

    Vinous

    This young, tightly coiled 2018 Shiraz is far from ready to drink. Right now, it is a heady mix of fruit, oak, lavish tar, licorice and warm slate aromas wrapped up in a thick blanket of coconut oak. That impressive flavor intensity is well supported by weighty tannins through a seriously long finish. Bold and embryonic, this needs at least ten years, if not more, to flower.

    Dense, with toothsome tannins that add a firm background to tangy blackberry and blueberry flavors, with notes of crushed rock and fresh earth, spices, tobacco and toasted cedar. Firming finish, where strong laurel bay leaf and sage accents linger.

    Once the top of the tree. Today, usurped by a slew of single-vineyard offerings, at least in terms of price. Crushed black rock, licorice straps, clove and boysenberry. The tannins, more resolved than in past experiences. Fresher and less forced, too. Bravo! Forceful, to be sure. This is a wine with a future, for those who like warm-climate, powerful Australian shiraz.

    Rich, heady aromas of mint, mocha, ground pepper, plum and black currant preserves lead to an equally powerful, dense palate that's wound in muscular, dusty tannins. This is a massive wine now, but everything is in place for it to go the distance - a decade, at least. Old Bridge Cellars. Cellar Selection.
