D'Arenberg Stump Jump Cabernet Merlot 750ml

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. Big Cabernet Merlot nose, full of black currants, black olives and bay leaves. The palate is full and generous, with flavours of black currant pastels and liquorice sweets. There's some tannin present, but not too much. It's tasty, and fun drinking.
