dArenberg The Stump Jump GSM 2018

Sam Kim writes "Sweetly ripe and attractively spicy, the wine shows dark cherry, thyme, clove and toasted nut characters on the nose, followed by a beautifully supple palate delivering succulent fruit flavours with smooth texture and fine tannins. Medium-full and friendly for delightful drinking."

The winery writes "An array of dark, sweet and savoury notes, Plum, dark cherry, game, earth and black pepper. The palate adds mulberry, raspberry with beautiful lifted spice and mineral grit. The fine, powdery, gritty tannins are fruit derived and lively, making for a long finish. There’s no shortage of flavour here."

Cameron Douglas MS writes "Fresh, fruity, classic scents of red plums with milk chocolate and red berry fruit flavours. On the palate there’s a touch of black and white spice, licorice and red berry fruit flavours that mirror the bouquet. Fine easy tannins and medium+ ish acidity. Balanced and well made in a drink now style. you won’t be disappointed by the quality and price."
