97 Points Halliday Rating, Marcus Ellis, Published 08 August 2024 "This vintage, a cool year and a fine one, the pinnacle Pannell grenache wines need extra time. This, from Blewitt Springs, and 80-year-old vines, is majestic, corseted to a degree by the commanding tannins of the year, but not diminished by them. The Pannell mandate of preservation of freshness is still on full display, if with some initial reticence. Redcurrant, rosehip, raspberry leaf tea, crushed rose, bergamot, dried orange peel, musk, mace and white pepper – so layered – underscored by a bass note of old-vine depth serenely cruising in low gear, in no rush, quietly confident. It’s a stunning expression."

A lush and intricate Grenache crafted from 80-year-old vines rooted in McLaren Vale's Maslin Beach sands, capturing the region's essence through Stephen Pannell's approach to minimal intervention winemaking.

Tasting Notes

"A bold, earthy Grenache that captures the essence of this standout vintage with notes of pickled ginger, tamarind, and dark cherries. A slight mossy iodine tinge lends depth to its robust, drying finish. This wine embodies the signature intensity of a region known worldwide for premier Grenache." - James Suckling 

"A darker, moodier Grenache with layers that reveal themselves slowly. Expect raspberries, blackcurrant, and a savory char siu undertone wrapped in tannins. This is a wine to savor, allowing time to unfold its depth." - Nick Ryan 

"Rich, ripe, and powerful, this Grenache balances sweetness with herbal, savory, and saline undertones. Aromas of ripe plum, raspberry jam, and sage lead to a chewy, textured tannin finish. It’s a robust red with an exotic touch." - Mike Bennie, The Wine Front 

"Since 2004, the Old McDonald vineyard has consistently impressed with its unique qualities. This cool vintage McLaren Vale Grenache shines with amped aromas—think chorizo, blood orange, pomegranate, and Turkish delight. A darker profile of blackberry and cherry compote adds intrigue to its floral backdrop." - SC Pannell
