Description

The S.C. Pannell Grenache, Shiraz, Touriga (GST) and also known as the ‘Purple One’ is a wonderful all-rounder: anywhere, anytime with anything! It is a wine that comes from the amazingly textured McLaren Vale landscape and represents the diversity possible of blended red wine. The climatic suitability of both Grenache and Touriga to the South Australian climate means fewer inputs required in the winery delivering wines with amazing depth, complexity, and flavour. Grenache brings lifted aromatics and its trademark sandy tannins. Shiraz chimes in with red fruits, spice, and weight, whilst the Touriga Nacional adds punchy plum pudding, dried spice and florals. The resultant wine is so much more than just the sum of its parts and is always irresistible. Lavender, lilac, luxury and liquorice aromas capture the senses before a harmonious key change revealing black grapes, black cherry, incense and rose petals. Notes of raspberry bon bons, cherry, blueberry and dark chocolate are wrapped in panettone aromas provided by the Touriga. There is a timeless character to the ‘GST’ that has evolved and continues to impress. On the palate, this wine has a silky texture and is medium-bodied with racy acidity.
