S.C. Pannell Tempranillo/Touriga from Adelaide, South Australia is a powerful and complex Red still dry wine, crafted from Tempranillo and Touriga Nacional grapes. It offers a nose of dark plum, spiced cherries, cinnamon, cloves, chocolate, black tea, and liquorice. The palate reveals persistent, feathery tannins and intense red cranberry, leading to a long finish. Vinified with 12 months ageing in French oak puncheons, this vegan and vegetarian-friendly wine pairs beautifully with rich lamb dishes or mature cheeses.

Vinification
The Tempranillo was hand-harvested in late February and was crushed and fermented in open top fermenters with daily pump overs. The wine was then pressed after ten days on skins. The Tempranillo was then sent to French oak puncheons for malolactic fermentation. The Touriga was hand-picked in early April, and also spent ten days on skins. The wine was blended in late May before ageing in puncheon for 12 months.
