SC Pannell 'Sunrise 99' Grenache 2022
Our Verdict
“ They are collectible in the extreme, but magnificent to drink today.” Erin Larkin, Wine Advocate Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
It’s hard to pinpoint anyone who understands the Australian winegrowing landscape with as much clarity as Steve Pannell. And that understanding has catalysed the gradual spread in his range of wines, labels, ideas, and the acquisition of the vineyards - across McLaren Vale and the Adelaide Hills - that bring it all to fruition.
100 Points - Wine Advocate
“What a wine. In terms of character, this combines the texture and complexity of the Smart vineyard and the ethereal spice and delicacy of the Little Branch and then raises the bar of both to a whole new level. The release of this Sunrise Grenache marks the arrival of an "off-leash Pannell"; he has been tirelessly championing premium Grenache from McLaren Vale for years in his own oeuvre of structure, shape, tannin and freshness. The acquisition of this vineyard site has given him all the permission he needed, it seems. In many ways, it feels as if all of the Grenache that Pannell has made over the decades has been leading up to this point. It was worth the wait. And there are great things to come in future releases too.” 100 Points - Erin Larkin, Wine Advocate
