Mollydooker 'The Boxer' Shiraz 2019 (Australia)

The Boxer Shiraz is perhaps the lightest and most accessible of Mollydooker's reds, although by any other standards it is still a hugely full-bodied and voluptuous wine...

Description

  • American oak
  • Spiced plum
  • Blackberry
  • Soft finish

"Thick, with sink-your-teeth-into-them tannins and powerful, ripe blackberry, huckleberry and blueberry flavorsthat show aromatic accents of allspice, Earl Grey tea, vanilla bean, milk chocolate and dried violet on the finish. Drink now through 2036" Wine Spectator, 2021

This alluring and unashamedly bold Shiraz has hints of spiced plums, blackberry jam and cherry all at the fore and finishes with coffee cream, licorice and vanilla. Full bodied with vibrant berry fruit characteristics, yet elegant with restrained tannins, resulting in a soft mouthfeel. Consistently impressive and seriously good, this wine is not short of character.

The grapes were grown on vineyards in McLaren Vale and Langhorne Creek. The Boxer has been Barrel fermented and matured in 100% American oak, using 34% new, 44% one year old, and 22% two year old barrels. The required Marquis Fruit Weight™ for the Lefty Series is 65% – 75%. The Actual Fruit Weight for 2019 The Boxer is 68%.

Mollydooker' is old Aussie slang for a left handed boxer and our Boxer always punches well above its Fruit Weight™. Did you notice he has two left-handed gloves?

Food Pairing: Big American oak & big alcohol, if brave this is the perfect pairing for smoky BBQ meats.
