Mr Riggs 'The Outpost' Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

Ben Riggs, son of legendary winemaker (and Order of Australia recipient) Iain Riggs, has developed a devoted following amongst wine lovers over 40 years now. Halliday explains his appeal nicely. “Each wine expresses the essence of not only the vineyard, but also the region’s terroir. The vision of the Mr Riggs brand is unpretentious and personal: ‘to make the wines I love to drink’. He drinks very well.” (Halliday). “Medium weight in a good way. Classically structured. Tobacco, currants, earth and bay leaves. Slight twang to the aftertaste but generally excellent ... 92 points” (Halliday).
