About Riggers Loft Wine Co.:
Riggers Loft owners, Kevin and Barbara Brown of R&B Cellars, always liked the idea of creating a cooperative winery and tasting room. Riggers Loft Wine Company is home to R&B Cellars, Carica Wines, Irish Monkey Cellars and Barrel & Ink, all with their own unique stories and wine making style. It is also home to the Far West Cider Company, a boutique cidery. Everyone makes their wines and ciders on the premises and participates in the tasting room, thus creating a special destination wine bar where customers can enjoy flights of wines and/or ciders or glasses of their favorites and take bottles home with them.
