Product Notes

The S.C. Pannell Adelaide Tempranillo/Touriga is a stunning red wine that showcases the best of both Spanish and Portuguese varietals. With a deep ruby color, the wine has an intensely fragrant nose of red berries, blackcurrants and black pepper, intermingled with vanilla and oak from aging in French oak barrels. These aromas carry through to the palate, which is full-bodied and juicy, with refined tannins and a long, savory finish. The Tempranillo brings structure and complexity, while the Touriga Nacional contributes ripe fruit and spice notes. Overall, this wine is a finely balanced and expressive blend that captures the essence of the Adelaide Hills region.

About the Winery

S.C. Pannell

In the year 2004, Stephen and his wife Piona set up the SC Pannell wine brand in Australia to bring out the full potential of the naturally beautiful McLaren Vale region. Since he had already understood about the richness of the Margaret River region, Steve was intrigued by the McLaren Vale’s potential to create sustainable wines from dry grape varietals such as Shiraz, Tempranillo, Grenache and Touriga. 

This made him explore the area with utmost dedication and a winemaking philosophy that he wasn’t ready to compromise upon. The fact that he had already worked in some of the world’s best wine-rich places such as Burgundy, Barolo, Bordeaux and Priorat only increased his curiosity more than ever. 

Thanks to his newly-acquired knowledge and an undying passion to create the best wines, Steve then went on to analyse about the terroirs, climate, culture and the quality of vine grown in the McLaren Vale region. Therefore, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that today, he is one of the few persons in this area who knows how to tap the resources of McLaren Vale to their fullest advantage and create the best of wines.
