Description

Steve Pannell's wines are made with modern Australian food and wine culture at the front of mind. The wines come from a range of stunning McLaren Vale and Adelaide Hills vineyards and are made from sustainable varieties that properly suit his South Australian climate. 

They're built around brightness of fruit and savoury tannin structure, and whatever your poison is Steve has you covered. Here's the best value way to try some of our favourites.

  • 2021 S.C. Pannell Grenache Shiraz Touriga
  • 2021 S.C. Pannell Basso Grenache
  • 2022 S.C. Pannell Field Street Shiraz
  • 2022 S.C. Pannell Dead End Tempranillo
  • 2022 S.C. Pannell Montepulciano
  • 2022 S.C. Pannell Nero Diavola

2021 S.C. Pannell Grenache Shiraz Touriga

The S.C. Pannell GST is one of the most successful of his range, with Steve himself calling it the Swiss army wine.

In many ways, this wine typifies Steve's philosophy on Australian red wines. The GST is about freshness and balance, a red wine that puts drinkability and versatility front and centre. All three components of the blend working in harmony.

Australian red wine doesn't get more gluggable than this. Fans of this wine in the past should buy with supreme confidence - it goes with anything, from food to a good time.

2021 S.C. Pannell Basso Grenache

The Basso is a lighter, fresher, more 'smashable' version of Grenache from Steve Pannell.

It's Steve's minimal-intervention wine. It's bottled with a minimal amount of sulphur, unfined and unfiltered.

Steve's wines are all about melding with our Australian culture and this is the perfect fit for BBQs and beach cricket.

It's lighter in body, dappled with the lacy tannins and spice of early-picked Grenache - It's just a great anytime/anywhere red from one of the country's finest winemakers.

2022 S.C. Pannell Field Street Shiraz

This is no-fuss, no-frills Shiraz brilliance from Steve Pannell, a master at letting the grapes do the talking. Forget heavy-handed oak; this wine is all about balance, with silky tannins riding alongside juicy, sweet dark fruits for a finish that’s impossible to resist.

Vintage 2022 brought complexity in spades, thanks to a long, slow ripening season that deepened flavour and developed those gorgeous tannins. You’ll find layers of boysenberry, Chambord liqueur, and a savoury touch of soy, tar, and sandalwood swirling together in each sip. The earthy, forest floor undertones give the fruit a beautiful foundation, with a bay leaf crunch kicking in right at the end.

For anyone seeking great value in McLaren Vale Shiraz, the Field Street is a must-try – it’s drink-now delicious, but tuck it away for up to eight years, and you’ll be rewarded with even more richness. Sourced from prime McLaren Vale vineyards, this is Steve Pannell’s ode to pure, unadulterated Shiraz. Don’t sleep on it!

"I love this wine and I love drinking it. It’s been stripped back from the artifice of winemaking to express the purity and breadth of McLaren Vale Shiraz."
- Steve Pannell

2022 S.C. Pannell Dead End Tempranillo

The Dead End Tempranillo is a juicy, medium-bodied red that is yet another case in point the mastery of one of Australia’s most forward-thinking winemakers, the peerless S.C. Pannell. Sourced from vineyards in McLaren Vale, where Spanish varietals thrive, this wine is a perfect match for our warm Aussie climate and modern food culture.

Bright aromas of cherry compote, sarsaparilla, and cola leap from the glass, with hints of lilac, marjoram, and earthy undertones adding complexity. On the palate, it’s all about juicy red fruits with a subtle savoury edge. The tannins playfully tug at the flavours, delivering a dynamic mouthfeel that’s both refreshing and full of character.

A staple of the S.C. Pannell range, Dead End Tempranillo is designed for immediate enjoyment but has enough structure to develop in the bottle. If you’ve loved the award-winning Tempranillo Touriga, this one will be right up your alley—an easy-going yet deeply satisfying wine perfect for any occasion.

2022 S.C. Pannell Montepulciano

Stephen Pannell's curiosity with Italian varieties continues here with this fun, eye-catching Montepulciano.

If you aren't familiar with the variety, it's not at all dissimilar from something like a Shiraz. It shows deep, dark fruit, smooth velvety tannin and flecks of spice.

It's the perfect gateway into Italian varieties for those who are used to drinking the Aussie classics.

You take these varietal characteristics, add a seasoning of the classic 'McLaren Vale chocolate' that the region is known for, and you've got yourself a slinky, seductive red that's primed to match with an array of food, anytime, anywhere.

2022 S.C. Pannell Nero Diavola

Steve Pannell's affinity with Italian varieties is well documented.

He has been a great champion of Italian red grapes and their suitability in the Australian climate and culture. Steve planted Nero d'Avola (Calabrese) on his Olivers Road vineyard a few years back. The wine is now here and ready to go.

This Sicilian variety makes soft, supple, slurpy wines that work well with a wide range of foods. Steve's central message always focuses on a fusion of wine with the Australian lifestyle. This wine is the perfect BBQ go-to.

A flood of berries, licorice, sweet spices and smooth, soft tannins, it's just a great all-rounder and a great addition to the S.C. Pannell stable.

    Excellent S.C Pannell starter pack. These are an excellent way to taste a variety of Steve's wines and he's the master of Grenache and other lesser known varietels. The Shiraz still needs a bit of time but the rest of them are drinking very well now!

He’s a Jimmy Watson Trophy winner, a McLaren Vale Bushing King winner, a two-time Max Schubert Trophy winner, International Red Winemaker of the Year and Decanter Magazine’s 50 Most Influential Contributors to the World of Wine. Nick Stock described him as potentially “one of the greatest Australian winemakers ever to make wines in our age”.

Steve’s wines are made with modern Australian food and wine culture at the front of mind. The wines come from a range of stunning McLaren Vale and Adelaide Hills vineyards, and are made from sustainable varieties that properly suit his South Australian climate. They're built around brightness of fruit and savoury tannin structure, and whatever your poison is Steve has you covered!

He is truly one of the most forward-thinking and inspirational Australian winemakers alive today.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
