2022 S.C. Pannell Montepulciano, Langhorne Creek

Mulberry goodness from the get-go backed up by plum, red liquorice and an herbaceous note of charred red capsicum and caramelised vegetables. Bright red fruits on the palate with an Amaro / Chinotto character that draws the flavours through to the back of the mouth. A wine that immediately introduces itself and sets up for a good time.

Deliciously approachable and medium-bodied the tannins jangle and jiggle with a delightful tannin dance. The mid-palate is fruity and fleshy and introduces a finish laced with cocoa and chai like spice.

Perfect for immediate drinking, it will cellar for 5 to 7 years.
