What do you get when you cross Geoff Hardy and Ben Riggs? No riddle, just a brilliant shiraz from Australia's hottest wine-making duo! This is our last grab at this intense little number from a wonderful area known to produce great Shiraz and we know you love it due the multitude of pallets and pallets that have left our shores to your doors.
Ben Riggs reputation as a winemaker has grown exponentially since his days from Wirra Wirra. He has developed and refined a big 'joosy' style & combining skills with the McLaren Vale master... "The Boys are back in town!"
The warm 2001 summer ensured rich, ripe berry aromas in Shiraz from Langhorne Creek. This wine ladels a big serving of generous flavour that such a year provides, with the impression of ripe raspberries and spicy wild berries on the palate. Judicious wood treatment enhances the flavour to ensure enjoyment and a wonderful wack of tannins mean delightful integration of fruit and aging still to come. I am still loving this wine as an 'open tonight and revisit tomorrow'
