The 2012 Stump Jump GSM shows generous fruit characters mixed with savory nuances,
subtle oak and fine, gritty tannin. Grenache is the hero, with its lovely rhubarb, blueberry
and white pepper notes. The Shiraz brings darker fruits, plums, fennel and earth along
with a more robust texture and tannin structure which fill out the mid palate. Finally, the
splash of Mourvedre adds exotic dried herb, lavender, iodine and cured meat notes along
with a certain elegance and mineral tannin that draws the wine to a lingering finish.
