Winemaker Ben Riggs has completed an astonishing 44 vintages flying around the world, chasing harvests, and making wines from top quality fruit all over the globe. His home court is most definitely in Australia’s McLaren Vale where he owns vineyards and produces his highly regarded Mr. Riggs wines. Perhaps better known in Australia than the United States, Riggs is a legend. We certainly admire his 2012 namesake Piebald Valley vineyard Syrah with that extra dash of Viognier. It takes the bruiser quality out of Syrah / Shiraz, and as a result, allows it to complement a wider range of foods and situations.

Very pretty stuff with our highest recommendation!
