2003 Mr Riggs Tempranillo

This Tempranillo was made from grapes grown in the Adelaide Hills which has contributed to the wine’s intense peppery back palate. Very deep crimson colour with deep crimson hue. Aroma of spice, plum and raspberry, followed by hints of liquorice, earth and leather. The palate has a very long flavour profile of spice, raspberry and blackpapper overlaid with raspberry, black cherry, plum and spice. Fine, dry chalky tannins, which run well into the aftertaste.
