A flavoursome, fruit-driven full-bodied Shiraz, The Gaffer is testament to the best of McLaren Vale and is assured to please the palate.
Mr. Riggs winemaking philosophy is to make unpretentious wines that express the essence of the vineyard and the region’s terroir in a style. The Gaffer named in honour of the winemaker Ben Riggs' great-great grandfather. John "The Gaffer" Riggs (1814-1902) who arrived from Dorsetshire and settled in the Gawler region in 1855.
