Description: Rigby Orchards Estate Wine is processed from fresh berries grown on a 14-acre raspberry orchard northwest of Killarney, Manitoba. Planted in 1987 by farmer and entrepreneur Grant Rigby and his late father, Gerald, the family has been in agricultural production since 1882. Today the Rigby commercial fruit orchard is synonymous with their Rigby fruit juice nectar, as well as salad dressings and dessert toppings. Rigby Orchards' latest offering, a pair of estate wines (dry and medium-sweet), may prove to be their best work yet. They were recently recognized by the Saskatchewan Food Processors Association as one of the five best new prairie-grown food products.
