Mollydooker is a hot new label from Australia - try one of the highest-rated Shiraz' evrey while its still available. 95 Points Robert Parker: "The opaque purple-colored Blue-Eyed Boy Shiraz spent 12 months in 80% new American oak. It offers up an enticing nose of cedar, tobacco, mineral, blueberry, and black raspberry. Opulent on the palate, this glossy effort will evolve for another 1-2 years but can be enjoyed now and over the next decade." Mollydooker (the Australian equivalent of “Southpaw”– both Sparky and Sarah Marquis are left-handed) is the label of the renowned winemaking team of Sparky and Sarah Marquis.

Slick power but no depth. Kind of like a really physical attractive person that has nothing to talk about or interesting to say.

Nice dark color. Nose of red & blue fruits and violets. Nicely ripened; blackberries, black plum, black raspberries, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, crushed stones, soft leather, underbrush, black cherry licorice, medium body and beautiful mellow acidity. Tasted like a warm vintage.

The epitome of what vintage variation can do for a wine. The structure is nothing but a balance of fruit and acid. I'd drink this before the '14. Much more food friendly, in my opinion.

One of my favorite red wine brands from Australia. Rich and full bodied. Expensive but worth it.

Lovely wine. Had this on a picnic. Best enjoyed in real glasses however and with a nice bloody steak or Burger. Wonderful Australian fruit bomb.
