With over 25 years winemaking experience, Ben Riggs certainly knows how to get the best out of Cabernet Sauvignon, which is evident in this 2012 example. It’s a full-bodied red that has great varietal signatures and solid cellaring potential.
It features a nose full of blackberry, cigar box, earth and leather aromas. The palate is characterised by black fruit flavours with a racy vein of redcurrant, vibrant acid drive, leafy tannins and background charry oak.
