Note di degustazione
D'Arenberg's 2009 The Dead Arm Shiraz is evolving slowly and beautifully. Floral, dusty aromas akin to rose hips feature on the nose, followed by flavors of cranberries and chocolate. Still a bit tight and tart, it's full-bodied and velvety, with a long finish. Give it a little more time in the glass, and it opens up and reveals more cherry fruit.

Opaque ruby. A complex, floral-accented bouquet displays cherry-cola, cassis, bacon fat, licorice and candied violet. Initially firm and linear but quickly unfolds to offer sweet dark berry and bitter cherry flavors and an overlay of baking spices. Vanilla and cola nuances build with air and carry through a long, gently tannic, focused finish. Very rich but I get no impression of excess weight here.
