The Wine
A seamless blend of Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, “Three Corner Jack” combines rich, ripe, dark berry fruit and spice of Shiraz with the elegant, red berry fruit and structure that Cabernet offers. The velvet trait of Merlot fleshes out the palate with its soft plummy fruit, softening off the tannins of Cabernet and the robust force of Shiraz.

Mr. Riggs “Three Corner Jack” – hard to ignore, it will stick with you!

The Vineyards
Grapes for “Three Corner Jack” have been sourced from vineyards from a variety of McLaren Vale’s best sites. A tried and tested area for growing full-flavoured Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, McLaren Vale has almost the perfect climate for grape growing: warm summers, low humidity, good winter rain and long autumns to ensure that grapes achieve ripeness, flavour, acid and balance.

The History
In South Australia, where our beloved McLaren Vale wine region is located, “Three Corner Jack” is the name given to a three-spiked prickle which sticks to you and is hard to ignore! Perfect name for a wine that combines three of McLaren Vale’s finest grape varieties from three of our very best vineyards.
