S.C. Pannell's `Basso` McLaren Vale Garnacha from Australia is a vibrant, still red wine crafted for youthful enjoyment. This dry expression of Garnacha (also known as Grenache) is unfiltered and made with low sulphur, aged for ten months in large, old French oak vats. It offers a seductive perfume of raspberry liqueur, red apple skin, dark spice, and cinnamon, leading to a palate bursting with fresh blue and red berry fruit. Youthful and medium-bodied, it features super fine, tea-like tannins that carry red fruits on the finish. A versatile choice, it pairs wonderfully with lamb, pork, or mild cheeses.

Vinification

The grapes were hand picked at 13.7 Baume. Fermentation took place in open top fermenters with daily pump overs. The grapes spent 10 days on skins before gentle pressing. After undergoing malolactic fermentation, the wine was aged for ten months in large, old French oak vats. The wine was racked twice before bottling, without filtration, on the 8th of February 2021.
