This McLaren Vale Shiraz offers a beautifully balanced expression with fragrant notes of raspberry, strawberry, mulberry, and spice. The palate is juicy and silkily textured, featuring pure fruit, fresh acidity, and supple tannins. A remarkable value, the wine reveals rich, velvety flavors of blackberries, cherries, wild strawberries, and mulberries, culminating in a silky finish. Perfect for savoring now, showcasing brilliance and finesse.
It is rumored that the inventor of the Stump Jump plow, which enabled a plowshare to jump over tree roots, had poor eyesight and required regular tests to ensure he could still operate machinery. The design of this label is inspired by an optometrist’s eye chart and serves as a makeshift sobriety test. If you can hold the bottle at arm’s length and still read the front label, you can enjoy another glass.
The grapes used in this wine are mostly from very old bush vines, and underwent gentle crushing, traditional open tank fermentation, basket pressing and oak maturation prior to bottling.
