Grenache and Mourvedre blends from Australia do in fact exist. The Stump Jump from D'Arenburg is one that comes to mind.

Bob,

If you are talking about D'arry's Stump Jump, then yes I believe it is always a Grenache Shiraz Mourvedre blend.

By the way just found another Aussie Grenache Mourvedre blend; Hutton Vale from Eden Valley made by Dave Powell. Never seen it in Oz so I think it's export only for the American market.
