d'Arenberg Stump Jump Red 2007
Rhone Red Blends from McLaren Vale, Australia
ratings pedigree (past vintages):
|
|
- Light & Fruity: Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
- Smooth & Supple: Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
- Earthy & Spicy: Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
- Big & Bold: Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
winemaker's notes:
A blend of 50% Grenache, 29% Shiraz and 21% Mourvedre.
An aromatic nose is of ripe fruits, Christmas pudding, white pepper corns and boiled rhubarb
notes. The approachable palate is dominated by red berries, licorice and savory notes with lovely soft tannins and herbal edges. Its softness and balance of fruit and tannin make it extremely approachable at this young age.
critical acclaim:
"Soft and open-textured, with plum and spice flavors that linger on the juicy finish. Grenache, Shiraz and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2012. 5,000 cases imported."

Wine Spectator
"D’Arenberg’s reds begin with the 2007 The Stump Jump Red, a Grenache, Shiraz, and Mourvedre blend which was whole berry fermented. Fragrant and fruity, it has plenty of crisp, crunchy fruit, ripe flavors, and a lengthy close. Drink this easy-going quaffer over the next 2-3 years."

I would buy this wine again
Pleasant fruity flavor reminiscent of berries and cherries, not much nose, rather light, very little bite.
