Dark, dense and concentrated, the 2004 Mr. Riggs Shiraz offers nice blueberry, raspberry and black pepper on the nose. Full bodied with nice structure and medium tannins on the long finish.

Score 95/100 · Drink 2005-2012, Robert Parker, Oct 2005
The blockbuster 2004 Shiraz was aged 18 months in French oak (40% new). It is a wine of great intensity, with an opaque purple color as well as a gorgeous nose of camphor, graphite, blackberries, tar, and charcoal. Rich, super-pure fruit cascades over the palate of this opaque purple-colored, full-bodied, voluptuously-textured Shiraz. Consume it over the next 6-7 years.
