But don't worry, you'll find plenty more handpicked wines here.
Flavor Profile
Down Under, ‘beyond the black stump’ means you’re really off the beaten path. But remote origins haven’t stopped The Black Stump Durif Shiraz—it’s racked up a stack of golds and other serious acclaim at the most prestigious competitions in the world. And this 2022 release deliciously carries on the tradition, having already won a 92-point score and gold medal.
All medals and international awards aside, you really know a wine is special when customers call the winery when they run out of it, hoping for more. That’s the kind of devotion The Black Stump inspires. It takes a special recipe, too. As Alan Kennett, the original winemaker says, when you blend Durif with Shiraz, “magical things happen.” Durif brings power, structure and chocolatey, blueberry flavors. Shiraz adds more oomph and spicy bramble notes.
Luckily for us, Alan passed on his special recipe to his former apprentice David Joeky, The Black Stump’s talented new winemaker. After working together closely for years, his winemaking chops are just as sharp as Alan’s, so there’s no doubt The Black Stump will continue to impress customers and critics alike. Just wait until you taste this sumptuous, gold-medal-winning 2022 release.
With such a thirsty following, this ‘black magic’ blend flies out of our cellars in record time. Hurry for your share.
GOOD TO KNOW: This wine qualifies for multiple case pricing (a case = 12 btls). The more cases you buy, the less you’ll pay per bottle—and the more you’ll save! Price updates in shopping cart.
