Ricky Ponting for The Hamper Emporium featuring Ponting wines

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Ricky Ponting needs no introduction as one of Australia’s most celebrated cricketers and most successful captains, so when The Hamper Emporium heard he’d teamed up with the award- winning winemaker, Ben Riggs, to bring Australians a reserve of delectable drops, they were of course intrigued.

Riggs and Ponting personally explored Australia to source and produce a portfolio of wines that replicates the quest for brilliance that they both have displayed for years.
