"Fresh and lively, this red is juicy with berry flavors that show and a tinge of oatmeal. Finishes on a savory note."

"Look for crushed limes, Thai spice, floral notes and a hint of rose petal. A tightly packed, lime juice and mineral driven style with just enough slippery texture to show its premium status. Minerality drives the wine and it finishes ultra tangy and fresh. Serve with Pad Thai, chicken and cashew nut stir fry and anything with a hint of chilli."

"Fresh and refreshing, with pretty plum and floral flavors on a spacious frame, lingering without weightiness."

"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".

"The 2010 Thomas Hyland Shiraz displays a deep garnet-purple color and aromas of ripe blackberry and cherry preserves plus hints of bacon, pepper, tree bark and cedar. Concentrated and taut on the medium-bodied palate, it has crisp acidity and a medium level of grainy tannins, finishing long."
