About this wine
A wonderfully textural and stylish expression of Tempranillo, Mr. Riggs Yacca Paddock strikes a perfect balance between natural fruit sweetness and savoury complexity. Aromas of sweet-tart red cherry are layered with dried herb undertones and finely structured tannins. Fermented in open fermenters and aged in French oak, extended time on lees has added depth and a creamy texture to the palate. Elegant and food-friendly, this Tempranillo showcases both character and finesse, making it a perfect match for tapas, grilled lamb, or smoky chorizo dishes.

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
Enjoy it best with pork dishes like roast pork, tenderloin, and pork chops. Smoked meats, blue cheese, mushrooms, onion, garlic, tomato, capsicum, and aromatic spices like anise, turmeric, saffron, fennel, and ginger bring out its richness.
It also pairs well with grilled or barbecued lamb, roasted chicken or duck, and cured meats such as salami and prosciutto. Creamy cheeses like brie and camembert, pasta, beans, peas, black pepper, fresh herbs, potatoes, and crusty bread complement the wine perfectly.
