The Stump Jump Chardonnay, d'Arenberg Vintage:2024

The Stump Jump Chardonnay, d'Arenberg Vintage:2024South Australian Chardonnay, powerful yet refreshing, full of stone fruit, green apple and flowers, with a slight brininess on the tongue and notes of spice and hazelnut floating into the nostrils. The name Stump Jump doesnt relate to the English game of cricket (jumping over the stumps at the end of the game), nor the breeding of livestock held in the stumps but relates to the significant South Australian invention the Stump Jump plough. The plough

Medium bodied

light in character and softly golden in colour

The production was on average in terms of quantity

was as is it appears today- a blend of Shiraz and Grenache grown on d’Arenberg’s low yielding

the dry mountain desert region in far North-Western Argentina near the city of Salta towards the Uruguayan/Brazilian border

dissolving into tertiary scents of vanilla and a delicate woody aroma

The finish is long with a mouthwatering bitter-cherry twist

Cave de Turckheim lies at the mouth of the Munster Valley

One has the sensation of biting into juicy

or can be enjoyed in the next 2-3 years

The harvest took place early September under a bright sunshine

with aromas of citrus zest and apple
