Mr Riggs J.F.R Shiraz 2023, McLaren Vale

Mr Riggs J.F.R Shiraz 2023 McLaren Vale

Deep crimson with vibrant purple depth.

The nose is intense and layered, revealing blackberry, blueberry and dark plum interwoven with dark chocolate, espresso and finely judged oak. Hints of graphite and subtle mineral notes lend further definition.

Full-bodied and commanding, the palate delivers concentrated black fruit; blackberry, dark plum and black cherry and framed by firm, architectural tannins. Notes of cacao, espresso bean and sweet spice build through the mid-palate, while integrated oak brings polish and structure. Fresh acidity runs beneath the richness, giving the wine lift and precision. The finish is long, powerful and persistent, trailing dark chocolate, spice and vanilla bean.

A flagship-style McLaren Vale Shiraz defined by depth, structure and authoritative presence.
