"Vibrant pale green straw. Attractive, tropical and white peach aromas with undertones of honeysuckle and lemon. Light and refreshing on the palate, the wine is vibrant with sherbet like flavours. The delicate “frizzante” style is balanced with lively and soft fruit sweetness."

"Berries, vanilla and chocolate. The blend is Shiraz-based with a mixed blend of other red varietals."

"Glass-staining purple. An expressive, heady bouquet gives out candied red fruits, potpourri and Asian spices, with a smoky nuance gaining power in the glass. Rich but lively, offering vibrant raspberry and cherry-cola flavors and notes of allspice and star anise. Sweet and silky on a finish that keeps on with impressive tenacity and spiciness. This wine always delivers outstanding value."

"Bright violet color. Powerfully scented with blackberry and blueberry, with a more serious licorice character coming up in the glass. Flavors of dark berries, bitter cherry and mocha show both depth and verve, sweetened by a touch of vanilla. Gains firmness with air and finishes with good clarity and length. Definitely shows the polish I've come to expect from a Ben Riggs wine."

"The 2006 Grenache Hickinbotham Vineyard, from a vineyard planted in 1920 is exceptionally aromatic with notes of crushed rock, smoke, violets and black cherry".

"Smooth, polished and open-textured, with plum and blackberry flavors that show a violet note, lingering easily."

"A lively, light wine displaying fresh flavors of fruit and lemon sorbet."
