SC Pannell are fortunate to work with clever growers who saw the potential of Spanish varietals in McLaren Vale long ago. The vineyards they work with are now over twenty years old and prove themselves every year with consistent quality. The flavours and balance in the fruit inspired them to further our pursuit of varietal Tempranillo and to plant in their vineyard at the Dead End of Amery Rd. The vines are now seven years old and form a significant part of the final blend.

Iberian varietals are ideally suited to the McLaren Vale climate and this wine continues to be a perfect example of what’s possible. 

Classic. Cherry compote, sarsaparilla, cola, quinoa bark, marjoram and bone broth aromas, but wait, there's more... pot pourri, lilac and uplifting florals speak of Koomilya's influence, with a rousing thump of redness on the palate so typical of Tempranillo.

A quiet entry, no fanfare, subtle, silnet and silky but then, a vibration that builds, layers and scaffolds, leaving no corner of the palate untouched. A French horn blast of power signals to the valleys of the back palate that flavour is on the way. A delicious melding of flavour and texture with a lingering finish. Classic!

The ideal tapas wine, cries out for Chorizo or paella
