Pale to medium garnet-purple, the 2014 The Stump Jump Shiraz is profoundly minty with a core of baked red cherries, black raspberries and cinnamon stick plus a hint of chocolate box. Medium-bodied, the palate has somewhat astringent tannins detracting from the otherwise gregarious and appealing fruit, finishing a little bitter.

Fresh raspberry and matcha green tea flavors are fresh and vibrant, showing a juicy side, with details of spice and red licorice. Harmonious on the finish, where the tannins provide a little traction. Drink now. 9,000 cases imported.??–MW??Region: Australia / McLaren Vale Select to Add
