This Mr. Riggs Shiraz offers a classic expression of the varietal, with aromas of dark cherry, blackberry, and a hint of pepper. On the palate, this full-bodied Australian red offers notes of ripe plum, mocha, and a touch of smoky oak. Richly textured and well-structured, this Shiraz has a long, lingering finish with a lingering hint of licorice. Enjoy with grilled steak or a hearty stew.
