About this wine
Awarded 90 points by Halliday Wine Companion, Mr. Riggs The Outpost Cabernet Sauvignon is a beautifully balanced expression of Coonawarra’s renowned Cabernet. Sourced from the esteemed Wetherall vineyards, it presents intensely bright, floral, and fragrant aromas. The refined palate offers classic blackcurrant and dark berry flavors, layered with fine-grained tannins and well-integrated oak, creating depth and structure. Silky yet powerful, this wine delivers a long, elegant finish, making it ideal for cellaring or pairing with grilled ribeye, slow-roasted lamb, or aged cheddar.

Winemaker Ben (Mr.) Riggs follows the philosophy “iconic wines from iconic regions”. Whether it’s McLaren Vale Shiraz, Coonawarra Cabernet, or Clare Valley Riesling, his wines are expressing the essence of the vineyard and variety in a style that is big, rich and complex, but also with finesse, texture and elegance. In Ben’s own words: “Think Ella Fitzgerald – bombastic and powerful with a huge vocal range, yet with purity of tone and a gentle sensibility when needed.”

Food pairing suggestions
This wine is a perfect match for rich red meats like beef, lamb, and venison, especially grilled, barbecued, or roasted. Aged cheeses like cheddar and parmesan, along with dishes seasoned with black pepper or smoky flavours, complement it beautifully.
It also pairs beautifully with grilled or barbecued pork, smoked meats, and cured cuts like salami and prosciutto. Mushrooms, tomato-based dishes, garlic, roasted capsicum, pasta, potatoes, and crusty bread make excellent matches.
