Winemaker Notes

Riesling, Marsanne, Roussanne Grape Varietals
This wine has a gorgeous fruit profile with fresh pineapple juice leaping from the glass. Wine gums present themselves as well as an almost sweet confectionary like fairy floss aroma. First sip, theres an explosion of flavor on the front palate which is fresh, crisp, but also juicy again, more of that fresh crushed pineapple juice and grapefruit. ~winery notes

One of the undisputed kings of Australian Shiraz and Rhone varietals, dArenberg has managed to turn individuality into an art form by doing a whole lot of little things differently. The original vineyards were established by Joseph Osborn in 1912 in the McLaren Vale region of South Australia. A century on, the estate has grown to 345 acres, and the mantle now rests with fourth-generation winemaker Chester Osborn. By maintaining a focus on traditional winemaking and nurturing their old-vine material, the Osborn clan has successfully established themselves as one of the countrys leading producers of concentrated, characterful wines. Consistently ranked as one of the Top 100 Wineries in the world by Wine & Spirits Magazine, this reputation is clearly recognized globally.

It is rumoured that the inventor of the Stump Jump plough, which enabled a ploughshare to jump over tree roots, had poor eyesight and required regular tests to ensure he could still operate machinery. The design of this label is inspired by an optometrist's eyechart and serves as a makeshift sobriety test. If you can hold the bottle at arm's length and still read the front label, you can enjoy another glass.
