Spanish varietals are ideally suited to McLaren Vale’s climate, and this wine is a perfect example of what’s possible. It's a lusty red variety that produces medium-bodied yet powerful wines with pungent fruit characteristics of fruit-mince or plum pudding. It blends well with red fruit, earth and cocoa of tempranillo and may just be the variety and wine for our times. S.C.Pannell 2017 Tempranillo Touriga is juicy, but not fruit-forward with a driving finish.
