Mr Riggs ‘The Truant’ McLaren Vale Shiraz 2013

1 December 2015By Yvonne
Mr Riggs ‘The Truant’ McLaren Vale Shiraz 2013Yvonne2016-04-06T16:39:47+12:00

Mr Riggs ‘The Truant’ McLaren Vale Shiraz 2013 $17.99 ★★★½MrRiggs_TruantNV

If you like your shiraz with meat on its bones then this will be an instant hit.  Deeply earthy on the nose and showing ultra-ripe plum, blackcurrant, smoky tar and molasses complexity in the mouth – it’s a rich, peppery wine and a meal in itself really.  www.blackmarket.co.nz
