Riggs & Wiggs Mangerton Semillon 2024
This inaugural release is made from a blend of several east-facing clay loam blocks on the Mangerton vineyard, planted in the 1970s. Shy on opening, it blooms beautifully with time in the glass, revealing detailed lemony scents. The palate is pure, lively and intense, reflecting the strength of the site. Drink now to capture its youthful beauty. Excellent value. 95 points, Halliday Wine Companion
Riggs & Wiggs Block 1 Mangerton Semillon 2024
The vines at the Mangerton vineyard were planted in 1978 using cuttings from the 1899 plantings on Oakey Creek Road. Block 1, with its clay loam soils and steep, south-facing slope, produces a powerful semillon with impressive flavour depth. The nose is expressive, revealing notes of lemon, quinine and juniper, alongside a whisper of white flowers. The palate is linear and focused, with gentle weight, breadth and texture. It opens beautifully with air and shows good ageing potential. 95 Points, Halliday Wine Companion
Riggs & Wiggs Mangerton Chardonnay 2024
Sourced from east-facing blocks on red loam soil, planted in the ’70s. Volumes of peachy fruit, with melon accents dressed in a fragrant oak overlay. All the flavour is focused on the mid-palate. Clean and quiet on the close. 93 Points, Halliday Wine Companion
Riggs & Wiggs Cullarin Chardonnay 2024
This historic vineyard at Lake George, the first in the Canberra District, produces a wine with pleasing weight, depth and varietal expansiveness, making it deeply satisfying to drink. The fruit characters are respectful yet defined, wrapped around a quiet core of acidity, with intricacies unfurling over time in the glass. Lemon, sweet melon and faint white peach sit alongside subtle grapefruit, mealy accents and shadows of oak. Take care not to over chill, and allow time for the classy fruit to unfold and the complexing elements to rise. A few years in bottle will be beneficial. 94 Points, Halliday Wine Companion
Riggs & Wiggs Cullarin Shiraz 2024
Made from the first vineyard planted in the Canberra District in ’71. A charming, sophisticated, medium-bodied shiraz. Youthful, savoury and spicy with ethereal top notes of pink peppercorn, rose petals, lemon zest, cherries and spice. The flavours are wrapped around a beautiful core of fine acidity. Fragrant, cleansing and refined. 96 Points, Halliday Wine Companion
Riggs & Wiggs Cote Shiraz DVP 2024
Made from dry-grown shiraz planted on a north-facing slope, with the grapes fermented in 130-year-old open vats from the original 1800s Côte d’Or winery. It has excellent energy and vibrancy, aided by the co-fermentation of 5% semillon. As well as fixing colour and providing lift, the semillon moonlights as a whole-bunch imposter, introducing an intriguing lemony herbal thread that adds an unconventional yet thrilling dimension. The old vines, planted in ’71, impart impressive fruit intensity, while the inclusion of whole berries in the hand-plunged ferment enhances the wine with a silky raspberry flow. 96 Points, Halliday Wine Companion

Still very primary and super intense with pastry notes, butter, apple, almond cream, lavender, honey, grapefruit, lemon, lime, white peach and cinnamon. Fantastic intensity with great vibrancy, the acidity so lively […]

Quealy Balnarring Pobblebonk Field Blend 2024
$35.00Quite possibly the most delicious Pobblebonk to date. Riesling, friulano, pinot grigio and ribolla gialla are the friends, each fermented wild in used French oak, on full solids and later blended. It’s heady with meadow flowers, lemon blossom and hints of lemon verbena, really spicy with nutty, leesy aromas, and the palate is both textural […]
