S.C. Pannell Grenache Little Branch 2022

McLaren Vale, Australia
8.0

Dark cherry and blackberry fruit shows impressive concentration for a debut bottling. Sweet spice and herbal complexity emerge mid-palate, while sandy tannins provide structure without overwhelming the fruit. The finish stretches long with mineral tension. Shows strong potential despite its youth.
