Doesn't seem to be much around, wasn't it just called Old Vines Shiraz in 1993, not sure when they started calling it Dead Arm, I think it was 1997 or around about then?

A bottle sold last year on Langton's for $202 and it was listed as Dead Arm.

Good luck with the search Derek - as has been mentioned 1993 was a prototype vintage not commercially released, and it will probably be pretty hard to find & expensive to get.

I'm not sure if it will ever be a top vintage and for that sort of money not something I'd look for, but then you're a much bigger fan of the Dead Arm than most of us. :wink:

Cheers,
