title: D'Arenberg 2008 The Dead Arm Shiraz (McLaren Vale)
description: Concentrated and intense, this wine features a potent whack of oak on the nose, with dark fruit and mocha overtones. There are enough hints of bright, raspberry-tinged fruit to warrant optimism about its aging trajectory, but at the moment it is dark, heavy and slightly scorched. Try after 2017.
variety: Shiraz
designation: The Dead Arm
